Scooter’s 568th bar, first visited in 2009.

When we first arrived the bar was empty. As we drank our beer we asked the bartender for directions to our next town, Manley. He was new to the area and didn’t know, so called a friend. His friend’s first question to me was if we were riding bikes or driving. “”Driving,”" I said. He told me he’d come down and hung up.

The bartender told us the story of how he came to be in this area and working at a bar, and within moments his friend arrived and started giving me directions.

The route would take us on dirt roads and the instructions included an important detail: “”You’ll see scale houses on each side of the road. As soon as you pass the scales on your right, that’s when you need to turn.”"

By the time he finished giving us directions the bar had filled up, and some nearby patrons had overheard and asked where we were heading. We explained that we were going to the bar in Manley, and they wished us well.
