So- we decided to take a run out to Centralia today. Neat little town. For those of you who don't know about it.
On 220 midway between Altoona and State College..
This guy was parked across the lot in a creepy little half-abandoned gas station outside of Jersey Shore. Sadly, we never got an opportunity to catch him.
The first dead-end we found came complete with the back seats from a minivan. And a massive pile of other miscellaneous refuse.
The ground immediately under here was burning. Everything you touched would burn your hand if you left it there long enough.
Neither the Kat, nor the ZZR qualify as even remotely decent offroad machines.
Marlboro Brimstones. Look for them in a store near you.
A little creepy...
Aaaand...
Yup...
Ha!
The VERY loose basis of the film...
That side of the road was at least six feet lower than the other.
Double Ha!
These pics were on a decomissioned, literally "lost" highway. We had to get fairly creative to get the bikes back there.
Toward the end...
Same pic, different angle.
No more road...the other end was basically the same thing. Giant piles of dirt and cinders.
Scout- proceeding at breakneck speed...
So- on the way back up we, naturally, encountered a guy with no shirt...and a chicken.
Yup...a chicken.
Driving on the sidewalk (see next pic).
This was probably one of the best areas in terms of survival. There was a foundation nearby, and an overgrown sidewalk. A few feet down the walk was so overgrown that you'd never know it was there.
An Orthodox Church in the distance...
Their cemetery
Another...
This was the burn-pit where the whole conflagration started. It was, apparently, about twenty feet higher at one point...
They're huge fans out there...can't say I disagree...
Last, but not least- if you're ever in the area (Numidia, actually) and looking for great food, good prices and top notch service...Don't stop here. (They do have smok'in hot bartenders though.)

It's all good! It's goody good!
