End of Summer

Seems that mother nature is cutting us short on warm days and sunshine.  I can remember still having nice temps and sunshine well into September the evenings might get a little chily we could still take off on the bikes for a ride during the daylight hours. 
Hurricane Earl sure took care of the weekend for us, black clouds, cold temps and rain.  It still didn't scare off the true bikers from riding ... "all you need is some good rain gear and your good to go" said one biker I spoke with, it brought a chill to my spine as he was saying it considering it was only 47 degrees out....mix that with rain and I say NO THANKS.  So I guess it was a great realization to me at that point - just because I have a motorcycle, have logged on many miles from coast to coast in the US...I am really not a biker at all...I am in the end just a person that likes to ride a motorcycle, hats off to the real bikers out there that will ride in any weather condition - ride safe my brothers and sisters.
