RE: Nothing like it!!
Ah, the freshness of the air, chimney smoke, fresh cut hay, cattle trucks, dead skunks...it's all about riding. Occasional roadkill smells don't bother me...it's just a part of nature. But frequent roadkill? That starts working on the nostrils a little![:'(] Fall is actually a good time to ride, and the forecast seems to be cooperating, too!

Cut hay drying in the sun, freshly tilled soil, lilacs, wood smoke, a county fair... these are a few of my favorite smells.
I was raised in dairying country and to me the smell of manure reminds me that farming is about the land -taking from, giving back - not objectionable, (but I don't want to buy the after shave)

Now that it's fall, it's not the scent of trees and flowers that we enjoy, but the smell of burning leaves, of backyard barbecues, charcoal grills, campfires full of pine, oak and cedar. It's hard to describe to non riders how important our sense of smell is to us when we are riding. We get to enjoy it in a world where we are constantly bombarded on TV by all the commercials that talk about "smell". It's great to pick up different smells on a bike.
