    Certainly had the "connection" thing going this morning. One of those rides when "the zone" is apparent. Unlike two days ago when it was all shite...

    I still didn't talk to the bike though...

    Of course I talk to GLORIA! I pat her tank and say, "Good girl" when we're particularly in the groove and keeping up with the other bikes.

    I also pat her when I walk passed her in the garage when I haven't taken her out that day.

    I also pat my wife and say, "Good girl" when we're in the groove too. So GLORIA isn't getting special attention.

    I do sometimes talk to my bike... sometimes I shout.... sometimes I scream... but hey I do the same to myself so why should my bike get away scot free?

    Smile

    My bikes tell me their names. So it would be rude not to talk to them.

    May the bridges I burn light the way.
