Nice to see you got your 700 Mark and you couldnt of picked a better setting . New England is beautiful this time of year especially when the waters are calm . Have a safe ride my friend ..
The weather folks blew it totally. We had nothing on Cape Cod as the storm veered way west to Connecticut, NY and NJ.. 5 am shower and light winds then I went out and hit golf balls and an evening ride. And these idiots think they can tell us what the climate will be 100 years from now. I dragged in all of my deck furniture and took all of the other precautions for nothing. It was an uneventful day here weather wise! Thanks for watching!
Yes….it’s kind of a custom on New England beaches to dry stack stones as a sort of “personal signature” graffiti like symbol of having been there so to speak. Many neighborhoods have the stacks and actually drill holes through them and actually insert thin metal rods to hold them intact. It makes for a very interesting picture.
@@DavidRidesaTrike I honestly don’t know but will ask some of the merchants the next time I am over there. I rode the 22 mile roundtrip from Falmouth to Woods Hole several times per week and have lunch there frequently. I am going to Newport RI on Friday and I am riding the ocean drive and will film it and also Bellevue Ave where all,of the turn of the century Newport mansions are located. It’s a spectacular place.
@@markfeldman6509 that should be a nice video. My wife and I were out there a while back (1988?) and we did a tour of one of those famous mansions. Pretty cool.
@@DavidRidesaTrike Dont mean to intrude but here is your answer to your question . Rock stacking has carried spiritual meaning across cultures for centuries. The act of balancing stones carries with it a practice of patience and a physical effort of creating balance. Each rock can signify an intention of grace for thankfulness, or offered up for another in need. ... A stack of rocks is called a cairn.
Many happy fast miles! It’s an awesome machine. Don’t get any speeding tickets! Be careful going over rough spots on the trail as it is a much firmer ride than the 559!

Stay dry over there, Mark! Here's hoping the storm's not too bad!

@@markfeldman6509 We could sure use some of that rain over here. Might help put out some of these fires. :)
Is there a story or reason for putting the stones on the larger rocks?
