Jonathan, looking at that pic, I am pretty sure that a motorcycle could have easily made it past those barricades and done a little more exploring.

Just sayin'   ;)

Is there anything more fun than riding? They are between your legs and are quiet when you turn them off.

Well, it's my SOHC bike (after a good wash), and it's on the road (I live at).  :)

Well it was the coldest day so far and so what better weather to have for a New England Fall Ride!  Very well planned ride so that there were few towns to pass through and hardly any traffic lights - we barely stopped except for morning coffee and lunch in Newport, RI!

The photos...our first photo stop was here on some country road...

Look carefully for the chopper in the background

Maybe it's the King's 750!!  You didn't buy it from a naked king, did ya Hondaman750??
Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.
