On my road, in front of my house  Was walking to the mall box and saw a bike coming up the road. I live on a long winding rural road that cars are pretty scarce on. Before I could make out what it was, I could hear the growl of that F6. Green and black tourer with what looked like Florida plates. Rider had a high-vis coat and what looked like one of those front flip up helmets. I sure was envious, as it was a beautiful fall day here in New England. |

You're right, the weather is GORGEOUS up here. Looks like for another week, at least. And I have to spend the next 3 weeks in Newark......  |

This is my favorite time to ride. Especially after they get the corn off so you can see the side of the road.
I have a jade and black Tourer and i rode yesterday, but that is a long way from here. ( still don't know how they came up with "jade"?)

I saw a black Tourer going down my street just yesterday, sucker pulled into my driveway too. Oh.....guess that was me. Finally getting cool enough to ride more often without feeling like you took a shower with your clothes on. |

With a coat of White on the ridge behind our home, looks like I am going to be riding the low country for the next 4-5 months. Rode over the Cascades Mountains on Wednesday in 35 degree temps, came back in 55 degree temps. A 160 enjoyable mile ride. It will be the last ride over the hill till spring. Didn't see one bike out and about except a couple of HD's in town.

That's cool, wish he stopped, but I was just some guy on the side of the road getting his mail  His bike did look well traveled  |
