Awesome pics. That's a cool stretch of road, isn't it?
That's "Bridal Veil Falls". That road was closed for a while when a big chunk of rock fell from above a few years ago. Here's a photo of me and my Ascot there taken in 2003:
![hugh falls](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/4062/622703.jpg) The other Ascot belonged to a Buell rider I know from Atlanta. |

Pretty depressing photos; thanks for sharing them. On the bright side, GT made a very interesting post on Facebook yesterday:
quote:The spirit of TWO is sill alive because it was you, the the guests, who made it that way. We only provided a venue for that spirit, just because that venue is not available doesn't mean that the camaraderie stops! As one door closes an other opens, We'll keep you posted what's behind that door!
I'm hoping they've found another location in the general area to re-open shop. Fingers crossed. |

That was great stuff until that last part. Sad. But you gotta tell the tale, even if you don't like it. I hope they get something going. There is just something special about a place that when you check out, you tell them how much you owe them! I really hate not getting to go back again. |
