Riding at night-
 
https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.hdf...8d2a2f32d3.jpg
How many do it?
I curbed doing it because of the deer herds and living in a heavily forested area.
Last night the voices in my head were too loud, so I took the bike out until around 0230hrs avoiding main streets and sticking to farm roads.
I forgot how without visual distractions of daylight, that my mind seems to reach a different level.
My voices got answers immediately, everything was by instinct just beyond the headlight beam...I returned home calm and slept soundly.
The pic above is some thoughts I had after a ride at night some time ago..
So, how many people ride at night?

I like riding at night. I don't like the fact that there are deer and other critters out though.

Night riding is cooler, winds calm, engine runs better, paint, chrome and women look better.
But don't ride between midnight and 5am.
Whatever happens during those times is always bad.

day, night, rain or shine.

but, as a habit, even in the cage, try to not be out during the times when drunks are prevalent, while they can be out at any time, there are times of the night when they are more active :)

Stopped riding at night 15-16 years ago. Not worth the risk to me. Too many critters and drunks out.

I like to ride at night. Sometimes I might pick a different route just to avoid deer but I still enjoy it

I ride at night to get to and from the bars.

Don't ride in the #1 lane at night, especially after bars close.
