fall motorcycling in New England

October 10th, 2007

There are a bunch of rides I do every year, day trips that I look forward to. I’ve talked about some of them in my previous posts and now it’s time to talk about peeping the leafs. Living in Massachusetts, it’s easy for me to hop on my motorcycle and be in New Hampshire, Vermont, [...]

Fleeting ride time and opportunities…

September 17th, 2007

This weekend was the first time that the feeling of fall was evident. There was a crispness in the air, some leaves that have fallen from trees were swirling around on the ground and the need for a jacket or sweatshirt apparent. Unfortunately for me, that also means that riding time is dwindling. Kawasaki graciously [...]

Friday’s ride to Maine was nothing short of perfect. We left Salem in the morning, around 10:30-ish. The weather was perfect for riding. It was a little bit warm, but when the bike was moving it was very comfortable. The left photo is the story of my poor husband’s life: forever waiting for me while [...]

Can’t spend a lot of time blogging today. I finally have a day off and I’m taking a break from working on the new house to ride up to Ogunquit, Maine for the day. According to Google maps it’s only 59.3 miles and would take an an hour and thirteen minutes. But that’s if we [...]

I returned from Laconia yesterday safe & sound. We had a great time, although it seemed like the crowds and traffic were light this year. The weather was great Friday and Saturday (ok, it was a tad bit on the warm side). I have a lot of photos to download from my camera and I’ll [...]

I eagerly watched the news this morning to see how the weather would be treating us today. It’s fairly mild outside, the first day of June…what more could you ask for? How about a little more more warmth and some sun? Nope. While it is going to warm up we’re expecting thundershowers this afternoon, continuing [...]

Well, we’re expecting thunder showers so the bike stayed home today. It was a gorgeous morning and I grumbled and cursed behind the wheel of my car as I drove to work. There were so many people out riding and it made me wonder if they checked the weather at all and if they had, [...]

Today I finally got to bundle up and get on the bike…as a passenger. OK, don’t be outraged that I didn’t ride my own bike on the inaugral National Female Ride Day, there was a good reason for it! I wanted to be able to take some pictures to share the lovely commute to work [...]

Bitching about New England weather

April 10th, 2007

Ok, I’m a New Englander and know that I should be used to the inconsistency of the weather in this region. But cut us some freaking slack already–it’s April now and it still feels like February! It’s supposed to be Spring. The temperature should be warming up, things that grow should start growing and my [...]
