Well one of the bridges was a suspension style bridge, and as that suspension cable came downwards, it hooked my mirror and pulled me to the side a bit...

 

 

But overall they're pretty safe. They get a lot of functional traffic like pack animals hauling stuff, so they're surprisingly maintained.

 

They're safer than the bathroom from the night before...

 

I have heard of the electric chair but never an electric shower head. Must be a turbo cyclone massage unit. Think I would pass and look for a creek to bathe.

We tolerate the smell of feet when they're wired like this! Or not wired, like this. It's a heating element for on the fly hot water since water heaters aren't a thing here.

 

Here's one that's wired correctly but not well...

 

 

You can at least turn it off and take a cold shower. We all ride and do risky stuff, but these showers are a bridge too far!

Shower/hairdryer combo? Brilliant idea! ️

 

P.S. seems I'm a bit late with my joke

I've got it! We have it on Video, not the shower head but the movie 

Sometimes the movies over here have strange names but as I prefer the original sound I know the correct title.

I'm not too familiar with the different risers, but the Helibars are taller as well as moved rearward?

@Hovde The HeliBars riser brings the bars about 1.125 inches up and about one-inch rearward.

Here’s a vid of a group of us riding a reasonably steep and boney old class6 road in south west NH.

  I need more of them.

 

Way to much house renovation project and not nearly enough riding this year.

Did section 4 of the ORBDR (Sunriver to Sisters) yesterday with my cousin on his 650GS. Very deep moon dust silt in places, but at least it made for a very soft off. Wish I had more time to ride explore here, maybe next year.

This was my turn around point on the optional quad trail in a local rally we rode. Between the mud and bouncing off rocks, I was spent. I need to work on my low speed suspension settings...

Sunday’s 221 mile ride around northern NH with a quick dip into Maine. Mostly asphalt 

[Rich TT]

Nice little 100 mile run out bedding in the new 50:50 tyres before we head to the Picos de Europa and surrounding area in Northern Spain for 7 days of riding on and off road.

Look at that cast!  Heavy hitters from days long gone.  Reminds me that I'm aging...fast!

IDBDR - Aug 10-23. Awesome trip. Last one is of Mt. Robson in British Columbia. 690's still can't get away from the T7...

Magnificent late winter day in the Upper Hunter NSW.

Perfect for an easy ride over Barrington Tops
