Autumn in New England

Yeah, summer's over, but I'm not done with summer-stuff yet! This weekend, September 9 and 10, provides some options along that line.

I'm still trying to decide whether to hit this year's Rice-O-Rama, that extravaganza of a Japanese-bike show/swap meet/convention that happens in central Mass., every fall, or take in the stock-car racing at Thompson Speedway, their cheapest ticket of the year. A motorcycle trials-competition in Exeter, RI, gets ruled out, I guess.

There still is more to happen at Thompson, which lies in Connecticut's gorgeous northeastern region. I'm planning to be there for the last road-racing show of the year October 5 to 8. And of course, you don't really need a destination over the next few weeks. It's great "summer stuff"  just to ride my motorcycle through the autumn foliage that's supposed to be at its most breathtaking this year.
