    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Its been a long late Summer.

I wonder: what really did I do with my summer? What made it summer? Was it the swimming? Well, yes there were some memorable wet times. And the warm... there is so much warm air in the summer. It gets opressive though, the warm air. After a while the damp musty smell of summer becomes linear almost ripe and vulgar. It holds so many smells that it smells like nothing at all. Then it gets cold. It becomes Fall.

I love the Fall here in New England. The roads are less crowded. The air is crisp and fresh with bands of fragrance like colored stripes across the road. It's candy for the soul.

My Gold Wing buddy asked if I wasn't going to put a Windjammer on the bike. I have a nice Jammer IV and a collection of mounts. I've got a couple of radio pods and even extra wiring harnesses. It would be a sinch to set up my 78 GS 1000 E with the wind protective bubble of a fairing and comfort zone of my own music but...

I love the Fall. I love the (realitively) bug free spaces. I love the turning corn and it's sweet perfume. I love the liquor scent of apple orchards. I love the dip and dive through the frosty then foggy then frosty pools of air that hang above and below the ridges I drive.

There is no bulk, no luggage, no unwelcome commitment to riding my (mostly) naked GS through my world. The air, the marvelous Fall air flows gracefully by my body, visiting for a moment then leaving... always telling me EXactly where I am.

Truely this is me. You can't put a price on this kind of happiness.
 
Where in New England?

southern western New Hampshire

southern western New Hampshire

I live in SW NH; 10 minutes from Ma and 45 miutes from Vermont.

I commute to Framingham for work,(central Mass.) Ashby- Townsend- Groton- Pepperill- Acton- Saxonville then Framingham. The trip can be from 49 to 60 miles each way, there are so many good choices. Nashua is like a little over a half hour to 45 minutes away, again depending on my route choices. Worcester is 49 minutes direct, but I can stretch that to two hours easy. All the action is south and east of where I live. North and West are mountains. Small towns... you know- God's country for riding :-)
