Ice Riders

 

 Here’s a mystery that we would love to help solve. Who are these brave riders? We have a few clues to help out. The picture was taken somewhere around 1930. The glare ice our fearless bikers are traversing is floating atop the Monongahela River in Fairmont, WV. That bridge in the background, called the “Million Dollar Bridge”, was new at the time of this photograph. The crossing was rebuilt a few years ago and its replacement is called the Mollahan Bridge. So, who are these intrepid guys?
