As I try to get the last rides in before snow flies I gasp at the beauty around me. It seems everything is intensified this time of year... sights, smells, sensations. It is perhaps the most invigorating of all seasons to be riding in. The air is crisp, the roads are virtually void of traffic, the sky is deep blue and all around are fall colours in the trees, grass and mountains. Here's a few snaps of today's extravaganza!! If I could live up there I would!  She's a rock star!  She's so at home here...  Snow in the high country  Whenever I'm ready  Even last week's ride although different, had it's charms (out with a couple o' buddies in the rain... invigorating!!!!). 
Live to love, love to live.

Hi Keith Seems like that purty red America enjoys lurking in the wilderness, and I can fully understand why.

Nice Keith, I would sure love to take a ride round that neck of the woods, even if the weather was invigorating

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Real purty country up there Keith!
Your Rock Star photo recalls to mind my recent ride through areas of the Rockies and the Badlands. Describing it to others I say, "Rock Art"!

That DOES look inviting. Here in Florida, the scenery ALWAYS looks the same, regardless if it's summer or winter.(we have no spring or fall)  The price we must pay for year round riding. 
And you may see me tonight

Very nice pictures Keith. We were in BC a couple of weeks ago. Drove over from Edmonton after my son's wedding. Jasper, Banff, Kelowna, Kamloops, Vancover. First time through the Rockies. BBBBBBeautiful.  And you get it year round. The colours....(note the "u" Dwight).... should be stunning in a couple of weeks.

John emailed me that picture so I thought I'd include it here. They really are quite similar John!
