    Question What is it about motorcycling

    I just returned home from 2 and a half hours on my bike.

    The roads were wet

    My arse is sore

    I used a tank of gas

    Bigger bikes left me behind

    I had some tail slides (three)

    I was cold

    It was dark

    But strangely, I enjoyed myself. I have a warm glow on the inside that isn't showing signs of going away.

    Since when does the combination of so many negitive things make you feel so good?

    Cheers

    lmao,
    i totally know what ya mean.
    the trip was cold wet long and sore and the grin just does not go away.

    but at the end of it. i thik it is the fact that you don't know how amazing your comfort zone is untill you step out of it.

    dam the shower after a cold wet ride is the best.

    Maybe my Mum was right when she said bikers are all nuts

    Nice warm feeling knowing I'm not the only one.

    It's contageous!

    Was watching TV, the Wife Swapping programme where it was the husbands that swapped this time. One of the husband's was given a ride on a TL1000. The first bike ride in his life!:slap:

    And then you saw him talking about riding bikes and he had this "look" in his eyes that I have seen before.

    Yep, another one got the "bug".
