big william's world

I spent the first several months finding a job and lived for a year without a motorcycle.  Summer weather in New Jersey is ideal for motorcycling and I found this baby -  a Honda Shadow 500  V twin 500, six speed gearbox, shaft drive with two spark plugs in each cylinderand looking a bit like a Harley Davidson. Of course it was a bargain price.

The love of two wheels with the wind in my face was as strong as ever and millions of miles of new roads to explore.

I used to ride it to work, over the Delaware River into Pennsylvania through the Pocono Mountains as the sun rose behind me - fantastic.
