Lost Mojo

[NC]

After being in a "motorcycle depressive state" where I just didn't really want anything to do with my bike over the past couple of months. But this morning I went for a pre-work ride and woke up half of Island Bay and blew a few emotions away. I'm ready to sort my shit and start enjoing it again.

Does anyone else experianced stuff like this with their bike?

[James Deuce]

Yes. I alternate obsessions.

I've currently lost my drumming mojo.

Does anyone else experianced stuff like this with there bike?

Yup.

It sux.
I think it's mostly just symptomatic of my current malaise and indifferent mental health, because I'm not doing lots of things I used to do lots (guitar, listening to music, writing, stained glass work, sex, etc.)

But also sometimes I get like that from too much commuting without hooning.
I haven't had a decent blast for a while, and haven't cracked a decent wheelie for a few weeks.

God, I have it so many times its not funny - But I'm over it now - once I hear that rotor type idle I just cant not love her

[Eddieb]

Yep, still in the middle of mine.

[Sensei]

Still haven't lost mine 50+ bikes & still loving it

I don't think I've ever really lost my biking mojo, but it's certainly been the cure for other malaises in my life, along the years.

When I've had a really hard day at work I take my bike for a thrash. I've come close to killing it or myself a couple of times now and really need a bigger bike The mojo tends to return immediately afterwards

No. 22 years riding and still enjoy it. A new bike before too much longer would make me feel even better though. Now if I could only win lotto....

Agree with you Slim, going for a 'decent' ride is a good cure, going for a surf is another.

[SPORK]

I sometimes loose my guitar mojo. At the moment I'm at my peak though Really enjoying learning some really challenging shred.

Vifferman, get playing!

What a dag!

Excellent. I can't find time to do it which is a bad sign. I used to make time if you know what I mean. Played for 30 years, taught for 10, and they desire has just gone away in the last 12 months.
