They were spectacular this year.<br />Living here sucks when it comes to riding - 5 or 6 months of decent riding, with a month or so on either end when it can be very cold, or dangerously icy.<br />You have it made. Enjoy it.Canajunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17529505799866207528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8259433565415179843.post-68510661809746147822009-10-22T16:09:46.547-04:002009-10-22T16:09:46.547-04:00Amazing photos, those red leaves on the tree, what...Amazing photos, those red leaves on the tree, what - Sugar Maples? Absolutely beautiful! But what am I reading here? You have only a couple of months when you CAN ride?!! WTF? We ride all year round with maybe one week when the weather is just too bad to go out! We don't have snow at Christmas, that's the middle of summer over here so everyone's on the road.

We had snow as early as October 9th. It has snowed, and rained and been cold for 5 out of 7 days on average since then. That's why I got out and rode for 5 hours Saturday because it was the first warm spell we had on a weekend for quite some time.<br /><br />Any your fall colors are beautiful. It does seem here that we are lacking quite a bit of fall colors compared to some years. I wonder if the fast hard hit cold had anything to do with it.Mr. Motorcyclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00317142329450322815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8259433565415179843.post-27421268574791204072009-10-16T14:13:29.307-04:002009-10-16T14:13:29.307-04:00Bob - I guess you don't have the sugar maples ...Bob - I guess you don't have the sugar maples out there - or at least not as many. They're what give us those great reds and bright yellows.<br /><br />Danny - I think winter has hit early pretty much across the continent, from the central states north. If I was commuting or using the bike as a major means of transportation I'd definitely look into heated gear. But for the rare fall ride when there's no ice on the road yet, it would be pretty hard to justify.Canajunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17529505799866207528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8259433565415179843.post-62893005735652229502009-10-16T13:30:22.111-04:002009-10-16T13:30:22.111-04:00Nice photo.

And while they loved the city and the climate, the thing they most missed was the changing of the seasons. Oh yeah, and no snow at Christmas.<br /><br />It is beautiful and we are indeed fortunate to be able to enjoy it every year, whether on two wheels, four wheels, or two feet.Canajunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17529505799866207528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8259433565415179843.post-49974317406285182942009-10-15T22:20:34.638-04:002009-10-15T22:20:34.638-04:00You know, I am from California, and we have no cha...You know, I am from California, and we have no changing of the seasons.
