It’s mid-September, and there’s an autumn crispness within the air, like piercing the outside of an apple or cracking the binding on a brand new college textbook. Sure, this bracing sensation confirms what you already knew, which is that summer season’s over and also you’ve were given to start out dressed in pants once more, which is more or less unhappy, however it additionally method top using season is upon us, and that you’ll after all put on wool and climb hills with out sweating your [insert your preferred genital way here] off:

By way of the way in which, are you able to spot the flora and fauna in that picture?
No?
Right here’s a better glance:

I don’t know anything else about looking, however is it the time of yr when you’ll shoot those fuckers but?
By way of the way in which, in a while I took the picture above (and completed urinating–you’ll safely suppose maximum pictures in this weblog had been taken all through pee stops, sorry if that makes you uncomfortable), the deer and a spouse galloped into the street and into the trail of an oncoming automobile in the back of which I used to be intently following.
Only one other thing to be cognizant of while using highway motorcycles, I guess:
Yikes:

Just right factor the bicycle owner used to be dressed in a helment…and the deer used to be dressed in antlers.
That’s why I by no means experience a motorcycle with out first placing on antlers.

Talking of using highway motorcycles, and the Cervino particularly, I’m no longer virtually positive that my one-handed moving concept is right kind, as it’s virtually beginning to really feel herbal to take action:

It used to be more difficult to take that picture than you’d suppose…and no, I used to be no doubt no longer urinating on the time..
Certainly, all of the motorbike is beginning to really feel moderately herbal, and I’m rising very keen on it. However do I love it up to I finished up liking the Vengeance Motorcycle?

I by no means anticipated to fall for the Vengeance Motorcycle after I won it most commonly for ironic functions within the spring of 2022, and it did take me a while to heat to it–however through September of that very same yr it had transform my favourite highway racing-type motorbike, which I do know as a result of that’s after I made up our minds to take it to Switzerland with me:

I believe the tale will after all seem in a definite mainstream e-newsletter in a while, however principally I were given invited on some giant experience in Switzerland final yr, and through that point I’d transform so keen on the Vengeance Motorcycle that of all of the motorcycles I personal* it used to be the only I sought after to take with me–42×21 low tools and all.
*[Actually, the bike I really wanted to take with me was my A. Homer Hilsen, but I knew everyone else would be on road racing-type bikes and that I’d need the extra speed.]
Now it’s virtually precisely a yr later, and as I climb up the deer-infested hills of suburbia at the Cervino–which additionally has a low tools of 42×21–I to find myself questioning, “Would I take this motorbike to Switzerland at the moment?”
I dunno. By way of that point I’d had the Vengeance Motorcycle for like 5 months, and whilst I didn’t fall for it instantly, I finished up creating a unusual and admittedly traumatic affinity for it that troubles me to at the present time. (Once more, I wound up liking this ridiculous hunk of historic plastic such a lot that I took it with me to Switzerland. With out converting the gearing. And I don’t even feel sorry about it.) In the meantime, it hasn’t even been two months since I took supply of the Cervino, so possibly it’s untimely to attract any conclusion at this level. It may well be that come January (that’ll be 5 months because it arrived) I’ll have transform in a similar fashion connected to the Cervino–surely a few of the very greatest antique bicycles to have come underneath my purview. Or perhaps the Vengeance Motorcycle merely touched my inside Lone Wolf in some way no different motorbike has or ever will once more:

We don’t at all times make a choice our motorcycles. From time to time they make a choice us.
