\"\"This week, I flew to New Hampshire and rented a Harley Street Glide. My riding buddy “S” met me. “S” lives here. I followed “S” to his home and settled in as “base camp.”<\/p>\n

We will ride 5 days throughout some of the U.S. States of New England — New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, and Massachusetts.<\/p>\n

Our rides are not aggressive, though the first two days, we rode a total of 371 miles. We saw…
\n
\n… beautiful scenery on good roads that were dry and had gentle curves through forests, over mountains, and through lovely valleys.<\/p>\n

\"\"The weather is perfect — low 50s (10C) in the morning. Wearing layers is best — long-sleeved t-shirt, flannel shirt, thinsulate jacket liner, and my Rev’IT Tornado 3 jacket<\/a>. As the day gets warmer, I shed layers for my riding comfort.<\/p>\n

I did not bring leathers — even chaps — as I was not expecting it to be cold. My riding pants (thick cargo pants) work well.<\/p>\n

I am glad I brought my Chippewa Firefighter lug-soled boots<\/a> which keep my feet warm and act like snow tires for my feet when holding my Harley on an incline at a traffic light.<\/p>\n

This ride is for five days. Not nearly as long or aggressive as our trip in Arizona and Utah last year<\/a>. This is enough… and good for my soul to ride free with my buddy again.<\/p>\n

Life is short: ride to live, and live to eat! \"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
