    Hopefully you'll live long enough to learn that any day you wake up is a good day and having a bike to ride just makes it better.

    Arriving at my destination is the most important part. It has the highest priority. Having fun along the way is secondary.

    In fact thinking about this, I have never really enjoyed going for a ride for no particular reason. (maybe this is why some people feel the need to go riding in a group of friends if just going for a ride??) I usually need a reason to ride. Either going into town for shopping... or off on a photography/camping trip... or off to a rally... or doing some suspension tuning on my bike... I need a reason. (and i am pretty good at dreaming up reasons - especially with photography as a hobby!)

    This perhaps gives me an objective to achieve... a goal. My bike isn't just a toy/play thing sitting in the garage like a jet ski or skateboard. It's a lifestyle and a form of transport. A very enjoyable lifestyle and form of transport.

    You get used to not riding after a year of the bus.

    Sigh...

    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    Why does it whine so much? And when kiddie gets annoyed, it red blings me...

    You're right. I'm in denial.

    I get to do a bit of dirt riding sometimes. But it's not enough. And when I do get the chance to ride my VFR between home and the mechanics, my raiding is hardly legal.
