Night ride to Bangor
During my first long distance motorcycle trip, I traveled from New Jersey to New Hampshire. I then decided to stretch my journey another 250 miles to Bangor, Maine. My ride through the dense New England woods continued long into the night and introduced me to the unique sights and sensations of traveling along unlit, secluded country roads. It also took me back to a place and to a person I hadn’t seen in over ten years.
