Night Riding

New York's getting snow later tonight (4-5 inches) and, with cold temperatures and another snowstorm next week, my motorcycles will be off the road for a while. In anticipation of that, I went riding tonight to scratch my itch.

For dinner I picked a restaurant 100 miles from home simply to enjoy time in the saddle. The restaurant serves buffalo and its owner has a herd of them. I had a Grilled Bison Filet with a Campari on the rocks.

Walking around town, I went in a dark alley and saw an excellent opportunity for a photo. This is me, looking as tough as a marshmallow like me can look...

    Love the photos! The play of shadows is very compelling. I ate Bison, once, and unfortunately, i got very sick. A bit of snow in the city, but the sun just came out! I hope you are back on your bike very soon!

    The next time I am in Riverhead and I am there around any meal time I will surely hit Tweeds. I love a good buffalo burger and I have also had elk and both are good to eat. When I worked in the city there was a place called Buffalo Bill's that was near the Pan Am building that was always work the price of a good burger.

    100 miles! Holy Moly that is quite the distance to go for a good meal. Wow. But if it was good ride and a good meal then it was more then worth it!

    How awesome! I loved that you picked a restaurant 100 miles away and went. Mmm and I do like buffalo burgers & steaks. Yum! And your photo is awesome! I was just talking to a friend who's heading to NYC...that snowstorm sounds like a bad one. Hopefully you guys get some spring-like weather soon!

    That photo is very "noir" :) I love that you picked a place 100 miles away so you could take a good ride...

    I love that double shadow effect. Although you need to be carrying something more shadow worthy! Maybe your bike helmet?
    Glad you squeezed in a ride. Hooe you are surviving the snow!

    That's a great photo in the alley! What a great way to steal away for a bit, before the frost. I love your adventures :) Always so fun to read about.

    XOXO
