A group of us went to the gap this past weekend. The guy in front of me stopped mid corner and left me no where to go. he went up the white line and i was stuck there. just so people know the truck didnt care they had to flag him down after i dropped my bike. i stood teh bike back up and was within a foot of his trailer with my bike. this is for anyone thinking of going to the gap remember to watch out. the photo was taken by killboy and lori helped me clean the mess up when i was there. i have called the company and emailed the picture. the guys driving didnt speak great english so i am guessing that they might not have been able to read the sign that said truck advisory find alternate route
why not to stop in corners at the gap

That's just retarded to bring an 18 wheeler into a place like that. And they have signs telling so. :no :no
Glad you didn't fare too bad---it could've been a LOT worse!!
