I get a lot of different smells when I'm out on my scooter riding in the sticks at sunrise.
Bacon!...most mornings as I pass a certain farmhouse.
New-cut alfalfa is a favorite. Hay & mowed berm grass. In the winter it's wood smoke and cow poop.
My daughter laughed at me when I told her that there is a section where I smell Frito corn chips nearly every morning. I slowed in the truck, asked her to roll down her window and "think Fritos!" as we passsed an area of roadside vegetation.
"See?" !
Always warm diesel when I cross over I-70.
Sometimes.....rain coming.
And, after applications of ACF-50, I smell it cooking in (off?) at a stop.
Lots of reasons to enjoy a rural sunrise scooter ride.

Just remembered another: drier sheets - in the neighborhood.

Gunk (degreaser) on a motorcycle or aircraft engine....ships engine room aromas......electrical insulation odors of a radio room.....honeysuckle aroma of La Jolla and our place in Tennessee.....

Yet another benefit of scooter over car travel.
The only times I don't appreciate being exposed to smells are behind diesel vehicles and fresh roadkill.
