WOW it has been a long time! I should bring some new bolts to replace the ones rusting. Last year I didn't get to make it down to clear the weeds off the site. Tough year at work... This year I plan to make a regular trip to this area.

I am glad to see the cross is standing the test of time. I am also grateful that the cross has not been removed by the State road crew or some other persons.

Hope to ride with you guys again some day! :blink:


Mitzie and I put a Red and Yellow Wreath over it for this years T-Mac......it looks like this now.......

Beautiful! Thanks!!!


I will get some Stainless screws for the cross and install them on my next visit! I believe they are 3mm but will get a variety just in case. :blink:

I was into RC cars at the time and used what I had on hand with the intentions of changing them as soon as possible and WOW has time slipped by!

I have often wondered who the cross there was for. Seen it many times in passing. My old FL riding group has one put up for a friend of ours on Hwy. 60 about 2 miles south of Morganton for a good friend of ours we lost, again, the bike ended up on him. I have to say, at least these guys went out doing something they loved, only hope when it's my time I will be doing something I love and it's quick. RIP to our brothers on two.

I see all the directions to the cross, have looked and looked and looked everytime I'm up there and CAN'T find it. Maybe I need to walk the route.... :fing02:

The rusty screws also have meaning. I'd leave it be. I didn't know him but I fill like I have known him my whole life.

Thats because your going to fast and looking where you want to go..

Next time through think to your self, "Which one of these left handers would hurt like hell and look up on the mtn about 10ft above the road almost Immediately after the apex.."

There that should be in terms you can even understandPosted Image
