Your perfect day.

[Zuki Bandit]

What would be your perfect day? What would you do? Where would you go?
I know mine would start out with cooking up a big feed of bacon and eggs for breakfast on a nice sunny morning while looking out the window at my bike and dreaming of the possibilities of the day to come. :yes:

Firstly, it's a bright sunny day in spring or summer, a light breeze and no sign of clouds. I would wake up early even though it's a Saturday and I don't need to - if I can manage that... I would have breakfast of yoghurt with muesli and a good brewed coffee, while listening to something funny on the radio that makes me laugh.
Then I would go out to the double garage and roll out my recently purchased FJR1300. It will glint and shine brightly in the early morning sun. This being the perfect day, I will have no need for the panniers, so I take them off.
I will ride for an hour or two on roads with no traffic lights and almost no other traffic, lightly winding with good visibility for the next curve, and the occasional tight corner. There will be a goodly amount of up and down slopes too. The scenery is a mix of farmland and forest, plenty of green everywhere. I might take a short rest break somewhere along the way, in a forested area where there is no sound except for birds and breeze blowing the trees.
About mid-morning I stop at a little cafe/restaurant where I get bacon+spinach+cheese quiche, and another great coffee, and sit at an outdoor table. The cafe is on a fairly high hill where you get a good lookout over the surrounding country, and since it's not near any built up area is also very peaceful. While I'm there another rider stops in and we chat about bikes for a bit. His bike is not as good as mine, but I pretend to admire it anyway. Turns out he is a KBer who I will look out for online next time.
Then I head for home, but taking another route, also about an hour or two ride. With no pillion or luggage, I can push the bike a bit more than usual and get in some really satifying corners. I will get home at about 1, so I still have most of the day left.
At that point the perfect day is pretty much covered, but I could top it off by tinkering around with one of my other bikes. This would be either a dirt bike or a track-day bike, and everything would go as intended (no broken/lost parts, scraped knuckles, fixes work as expected).

my perfect day would be waking up say 9am at my dads place down home with my gf, to a perfect december mid summer day nice and sunny not too hot but not cold either have bacon and eggs for breakfast with my famous coffee followed by gearing up and packing a picnic and guns, heading out to my farm pulling out my unused trusty big bear quad and taking my gf up to the highest point of my property (1200m above sea level) sitting in the warm summer heat by mid afternoon enjoying a good meal and good company, followed by the downhill ride to where i know the goats will be. Having a shot at the goats and rabbits on the way down, then heading to the waterhole for a swim by the waterfall where no one ever goes. Then off home to cook a beautiful roast goat dinner with a nice glass of red wine.

doesnt get better than that!
it gets worse with the fact i have to fly back to auckland:angry:

My perfect day?

A day without cars, cops, pedestrians, gravel and rain.

What more can you wish for, besides some good friends to ride with and a cold beer at the end of the day?

Milford Sound from Te Anau return, on a sunny autumn day, no wind. Indescribably good on both occasions I've done it. New Zealand's best ride by some margin, no contest. Great scenery and a great road. Phenomenal. If you haven't ridden it, make sure you do so before you die.

I would love to go to space and look back at the world.
What better way to put everything into perspective.

Wake up at the crack of noon, have a masti, and find out that cars are banned from Rimutaka hill on Sundays, and they've built a bridge to the South Is.

Sounds like last Saturday to me.
I'm just one of those positive wankers who thinks that any day above ground is perfect. I'm always in control coz I've made it that way, so anything less than perfect is my own silly fault.

I didn't realise that you're a student. What's your major?.

[peasea]

and they've built a bridge to the South Is.

Don't do that. it'd wreck it.

The day spent riding from Fox to Hokitika and back as many times as i could fit in,followed by a few beers in a country pub watching helen (lets fuck this country) Clark slowly being spit roasted over an open fire whilst repeating over and over again "i need to stop listening to do-gooders and greenies".
