This isn't much of a riding adventure, more a trip to satisfy a craving.  Thanks to my pal Norm I am now addicted to Tripoli Pizza at Salisbury Beach.  The ride is about an hour and a half from my home and the roads are pretty awful or at least uninteresting until you are about ten miles away from the beach.  Didn't really stop other than to take a few interesting photos along the beach, at least they were interesting to me.


The pizza equivalent of crack, sold by my friendly pushers at Tripoli Pizza.  I had three slices today, one with extra cheese.  Extra cheese isn't needed, the sauce and crust are so good that it dulls the taste.


The chilly beach.  About two weeks ago this beach was crawling with people in swimsuits.


Dog prints to the water.


Tried to catch some of the larger crashing waves.  I am using my old camera today so the sharpness and zoom aren't very good.


MINE - MINE!!!


Rolled about two miles down the beach to rest in the State Park.


Walked down to the beach along the rock wall.


I tried to get closer to those two birds on the rocks.  As I climbed around I found the rocks to be very slippery and the closer I got to the birds they hopped away at equal distance.  Check out the spray at the top of the wave on the right.  It was very cool watching the waves break as they came into shore and the spray getting blown back towards the sea.


Looking north up the beach to the shops where I buy my delicious Tripoli Pizza.  


Moss covered rock.  If you squint at the photo it looks like a mountain covered in trees.  The rock itself is about three to four feet wide and tall.


The grassy sand dunes before the beach.


More attempts at bird stalking, this fella wanted nothing to do with me.


This one stuck around a bit longer, maybe he thought I had bread or something.


Time to head back home with a full belly.

Don't know when the addiction is going to flare up again but it's good to know Tripoli Pizza is there when I need it.  And only $1.75 a slice, can't beat that deal.

Definitely something surreal about the pictures this time.  happy1
All this talk of pizza and no food shots?? I never got a taste for east coast style, you seemed to convert over pretty quick.

That's my favorite.

Pants I used my old camera, an Olympus Stylus 600.  It is a real crummy camera especially by today's standards.  I had to work the images over quite a bit in PhotoShop to get the images decent enough which probably accounts for the surreal quality that you noted Burgi.

Sorry my hungry friends.  I had thought the image of the pizza would only exacerbate your craving for the delicious Tripoli Pizza.  Also I made this trip two weeks ago on my White Mountain Weekend adventure that I had posted with pizza pics.  However let it not be said that I will not share...



Burgi I've always preferred thin crust east coast style pizza.
