The wife and I packed up the bike and took an extended long weekend. First stayed in the white mountains and rode into ME while in the neighborhood (Hurricane Mountain Road was new for me). We then drove down through NH and VT to the Mowhawk trail in Western MA. Cool crisp mornings, and some of the best roads I have done in years. Stayed away from the "tourist area's" and traffic for the most part...

Here are some pic's:

As a flatlander I say with all honesty, Thank You For Posting Pics. Real sweet bike and scenery and the beard goes well with the bike.

Very nice RKC, brought back a lot of memories. The CEO and myself have made many a camping / bed and breakfast combo run thru all those areas on two different bikes of mine, that was B.C (before children). Including one run on the Kangamangus sp. Highway when I looked in my rearview and had a nasty storm come up on our tail and made a 80 mph+ run on those big sweeping curves and beat the storm. We love it up there.
Thanks for the memories

Thanks Guys. We just recently started doing "bike only" trips. Took a while to convince the wife we could do it and thankfully she loves it.

ya, nothing like the thrill of riding fast to escape a storm that is on your tail...

RKC, those are some wonderful shots. I loved the water wheel on the one building.. obviously a tourist attraction now, where is that? You look really cold in that one pic Gloves, sweat shirt under the jacket, etc... I love the look of winter, but I hate the cold... Make mine a trip to Fla thank you...lol Great pics..thanks for sharing... :beer: next time though get your poor wife in the pictures also...she has to put up with you, seems only fair that she should get some of the glory. :hide:

That was at the indian head motel in Lincoln NH. Yes, the mornings were pretty chilly. It was probably under 40 for that pic, it did warm up into the 50's in the afternoon.
