Default day or night......

When do you like riding better? I like it at night, no cars on the road can just go along at my own pace....... but as long as it's not as hot as it's been lately I like the day almost as much

I like the days but the early evening runs are nice too. Lots of deer and moose around these parts, so riding at night can be tricky. I'd rather not have a dispute with a moose as to who belongs on the road , it would be very messy!

That's a hard call. I do enjoy night riding cause it is cooler out then, but then again day riding is nice cause you get to enjoy all the scenic routes. I don't care that I do the ride every weekend, but I love going thru New Paltz (in NY) and going over the mountain to the over looks. Especially when it's close to sunset, aaaaawwww... Gotta love it!

AH Mohonk mt. I used to live right at the bottom of that in Gardiner. Great riding roads. Have you gone up north to durham, Cairo, Hunter etc. great roads also. I know this was a really hard question, thought of that after I asked........

No, I never went that far up. I come over to Newburgh to meet up with my friends and then we just go on long, but short rides. I really like 301 from bear mountain bridge to cold springs... AWESOME road.

Daytime for the twisty stuff, but nights for the long hauls because there's less truckers going in my direction here at night.

I'd have to say, when I start riding, it'll be during the day, since Im nightblind. My eyes don't focus to dark and I become totally blind. I can only see exactly where my headlights are shining and when a car comes at me, everything turns black except for his/her headlights facing me, so I dont drive at night at all.
