Nothing to do with fishing

As you let her warm up watching your breath turn to mist. You start rolling down the road the cool fall air bites into your face and body. You smell the wood stoves from the passing houses, you realize as you watch the colors of the changing leaves in the lights. Why you love New England in the fall so much, and why no place else could ever be "home" or more than a place to rest your head..... Sorry guys know this sounds so wierd and has nothing to do with fishing... Its 2:10 am and I just got in from taking my good friends Harley for a ride tonight.. I have been riding since I was a kid and its like therapy for me, This is just a thought from an Islanders brain at peace for the moment...



P.S. as I was on my way back to the house the bank said it was all of 38 degrees out... lmao

South County this time of year seems to have its own great smell, a mix of salt air and burning logs

the triumph is mine... the BMW is my friends. The triumph is 1970, 650 vertical twin. was bored out during the restoration for some more power,,, has a really nice sound... a bit deeper than the typical triumph... In my opinion, 1970 was the last good year of the bonnevilles... then they went to disc brakes, added turn signals, went to oil in frame, etc....
