A good ride on a good day is medicine for the soul!
There are two photos showing a single-track road where an old railroad bed once was. It runs along the Warrior River near Tuscaloosa AL, and trains would haul coal from the nearby mines to barges on the river.
The other photo is one of many old, rusty bridges that apparently still pass inspection, and which make for a nice travel photo.

Thread title is “Today’s ride with pics”, so thought I would piggy-back mine on here. Hope that’s OK w/ you, BamaJohn.
Took a 87-mile ride this afternoon, checking out some of the other area farmers’ fields in two adjacent counties. We are about a week from starting our milo harvest, and just over two weeks from some corn being harvested.
A nice, comfy 100*F+ ride ….
Stopped and snapped a few pics at Hilltop Gardens near La Villa, TX. Interesting history regarding aloe vera production, as indicated on the historical marker sign in the pic.

I hoped the title would bring others to share their rides, if only "today's ride". I'm sure there are some nice ride reports waiting to get posted.

I was at the rally in Hot Springs, Arkansas last week, and one morning I headed out to the Queen Wilhelmina lodge. It was early-ish, and I hadn't met or seen another vehicle for miles going through the Ouichita national forest. There was mist in the pines on the shady side of the road, and shiny needles on the sunny side. Totally serene, Zen-like moment going through the curves and I thought, "Man, this is It. This is why I ride." Brought tears to my eyes it was such an amazing feeling and I had to frantically blink to see clearly through the next curve!
Wish I'd have stopped to try to get a photo at that moment, but I was too much into the ride to stop. But here are a couple from the general area.
