1st Annual Pittsburgh Run

[mrsmikeymustang]

Great weekend, weather perfect! Hats off to Bill Kratz :clapping: for a very scenic route through the Laurel Mountains to Ohiopyle and back to the mikeymustang home base. Here are some pictures...

Riders from L to R: Bill Kratzenberg, Devin (44 Magnum), Bob (06VMAXIMUS), Garrett (gamorg02), Ed (CustomMax), and Mike (mikeymustang)

In the background - the Wind Turbine farm at Mill Run. It's a 10 turbine array each making 1 Megawatt. Not much wind when we were there, but they are massive.

More photos to follow...

More images from the Pittsburgh Run:

Ed's (local guy) orange and chrome VMax. The photo does not do this bike justice. Great job: Looks great and sounds great!

A shot of part of the wind turbine array at Mill Run.

The waterfall at Ohiopyle - about a 20-25 foot drop.

Last 2 shots were of kayaks going over the falls. We watched 8 of these guys take the leap and all were successful.

Ed, your bike is bad-ass! Thanks for coming with us yesterday, it was a great ride and awesome weather also!

 

[CustomMax]

Thank You Bob, I had a great time and was cool to see and meet others with the Vmax obsession lol, I don't feel so alone, it was a good ride and I'm glad to see all my work was appreciated by the ones who really know ( other Vmax owners ) I'm real glad I went. Ride safe and stay in touch. Ed

 

[06VMAXIMUS]

I just did the math on my fuel mileage for this trip, and I averaged 39.22 MPG!

Thanks for the clarification Ed! CustomMax is fitting for the awesome orange/chrome job. Love the matching chrome helmet. Chrome gets ya home in style. :eusa_dance:

I would mount pinwheels on my mirrors and yell Wheee Wheee all the way home, err to Champions Home Central!:biglaugh:

 

[CustomMax]

Yea next year let's do a full Pgh tour, like Grandview ave on Mt. Washington as well as the Strip on Southside. Just some ideas for things to see that are uniquely Pgh. That is AFTER we spend the day tearing up the roads thru the mountains around the Burg. Just something to think about for next time. It was a blast opening up the beasts alittle on the highways too. Anyway back to polishing... Thanks, Ed
