Default Fall pics before the winter nap

Snow in the forecast for the weekend so I cleaned her all up and took some pics before she goes to hibernate for the winter! Just thought I would show a few off.

Nice. It was 86° here yesterday and 78° now but the wind is blowing 20mph from the south.

Make sure to wipe its (shark) nose before putting it to bed.

That's a really nice blue.

With the blacked out parts, I can't help but think of Kenny Wayne Shepherd's song Blue On Black.

Great pictures thanks, love the Black N Blue

I was planning on riding this morning but the temperatures were below freezing and the roads have been wet for weeks.
Not worth dumping the bike.

No weather nap here, just some good riding weather with this cool front that blew thru today.

Too late for Fall photos, Winter arrived at about 5:00 this morning. 18 inches of white stuff.
