I just want to remind all riders to use caution when crossing steel
bridges - especially when wet. Two of us went down pretty hard while
crossing the steel bridge in Ludlowville on yesterday's ride. There had
been a deluge right before we got to the bridge and it was very wet. Terri
and I both basically hydroplaned and wiped out. Falling on that steel
grate really hurts, and it also does a lot of damage to your bike. I don't
know what the best strategy is for crossing them - maybe some of you have
suggestions.
