When the alarm went off he thought it was going to be just a typical day. It started like a typical day, taking the dogs out and lighting up his morning cigarette. Getting a feel for the weather, deciding if it’s still warm enough to ride, or if he has to take the car, looking to the sky to see if the stars are visible. Checking the weather report to see if it’s going to be a clear or rainy day. Clear skies, lows in the mid 40s, highs in the low 70s, a good day for a motorcycle ride.
