I have spent time making room in the garage to accommodate the motorcycle. This is the part of the year I like the least. Autumn is over, winter is still a day or so away, making me wonder why we have mid 50 temps one day and below freezing the next. I rode the bike 75 miles from home to visit family and passed through several seasons getting there. It was fall in the upper valley, summer in the lower valley, and the dips and crevices of the routes I took had frost on the road where the sunshine didn't fall. Anyone who rides understands wet leaves and frost can be the biggest dangers a motorcyclist can face. I am not afraid to signal to the driver behind me (usually extra close, we will return to this driver) that I am slowing down for safety. I don't like the feel of a rear end sliding somewhere on its own without me. So slow and easy takes it. (now we return to the driver) I wonder why some people feel the need to drive extra close to my tail end of the bike. I just chalk it up to they don't have a bike and want to share mine!
So since the unpredictability of the season in the Northeast this time of the year, yes I have lots of garage time.
See you on the Road!
