I took a ride up to Rask Cycles the other day because I had seen them on the web. They have a nice line of leather products. I bought a pair of gauntlet winter gloves that are good leather for 15 bucks. They have the real thick fingerless gloves for 4 bucks. Its a small store that does a sizable internet business. They have other things as well, but you can try their website at the aforementioned address. Jim

Thanks,

FYI Yammer Dan...Newell WV. is in the northern most panhandle of WV. at the top of the state, in Hancock County....2 miles to Ohio going west and 3 miles to PA. going east......

Hey YammerDan, Did you work at the old State Pen in Moundsville? That place is one piece of work--went through on a tour a couple of years ago, and decided I would not enjoy prison life? Derrjunky

Spent my time there. Pile of rock wasn't it. Saw some sights. Convicts are not nice people!!! Could tell some bloody campfire stories.

YammerDan, I can't fathom in my wildest imagination what it would be like in that place in its heyday. It's indeed a pile of rocks, and if those walls could talk...

Our teen group from church is going to take the tour there when the weather warms up. The tour guides are former correction officers who tell a bone chilling history of the place. I have heard that the bottom of that prison was a very nasty scene. Facinating stuff. Have a good one:) Jim

Thank you I thought I was doing something wrong because I kept getting a search engine on the first link. Man they got some perty restos there! Wouldn't mind adding a few of those to the stable! My Dad lives not far from there and I will tell him about it!

Jim I sure wish I was able to make it up this year but, it sure looks doubtful. Dad would like to go up and look as some of the Restos though I am sure. He just lives at the back of Thomlinson Run State Park off of Scott's Lane in New Manchester. Evans City would be a good ride for him on his HOG.......LOL

Some pile of rocks indeed there Yammer. I used to transport prisoners there and I didn't like the looks of the place then, and don't care much for it now! I had heard that they proposed making a shopping center in it due to it being in the center of town. It is some fortress though!

Hey MeanDog,

Sorry about the link error, but a fellow member steered you the right way. Yeah, Pat Rask is the female of the team, and she is an old school biker to the core. She has a Sportster from the early 70's and says she will take the older Harleys and Triumphs over the newer ones. She had an 04 Harley and got rid of it because it was too different from the old bikes. She said she has traveled the nation 3 times on that old Sportster. That makes me hurt just thinkin about it. Some like the shake, rattle, and roll.

Sorry you won't make it up this way. Let me know if you change your mind.
