Haha, that may be true.  But they still could have picked a much better looking two wheeled vehicle to put on ALL of their images, be it a motorcycle or moped.

I ride nearly every day (except when I have to drive the monster for some stupid reason)...  So, I'm in.   :thumb:

Yup, i'm in, ride everyday rain or shine and love it.  There is no better way to wake up in the morning than to the smell of your bike and the feel of engine between your legs.

I'm ridin' to work too... unless it's raining/snowing too hard. I can take the water; my laptop & other gear can't. :) And they won't fit to the shoebox behind the bike either.

But then again, here we get to ride only about from mid-april to late october anyway... that darn ice & cold weather tends to wreak havoc on everything that moves during the rest of the year.

Bump -- for the last time.  :) It's Ride-to-Work Day when the sun comes up.

There's a breakfast at the Lil' Chef, followed by work, followed by lunch and a ride with the area's assortment of riders.

Should be a fun time, so long as nobody brings up the "Repeal of the Helmet Law".  :nono: It's like saying your religion is better than their religion.

If ya got'em -- ride'em. :thumb:

I ride to work everyday too (30 miles two ways), and im still waiting for a rain to happen to ride that day too.

gas prices? well, I have 600 miles on the bike, and so far I've spent on 3 tanks of gas (each one costed me some 8.75 US dollars)... ask me if IM happy  :kiss:
Caturday yet?

calamari

Oh! is it tomorrow?  :o

what a bad timing. I just came back right now from dropping my bike at the dealer for it's first service.  :x

im not getting it back until thursday  :bs:

Bummer.

It's all about showing the flag, getting out amoung the cagers and showing them you belong on the road as well.

Park your bike in a location that shows it off.  Be conspicuous, but be polite as well.  We should be good citizens and responsible riders.

Spread the word -- motorcycling uses less fuel, causes less wear & tear on the roads, is more environmentally frendly and gets you there with a grin.  :thumb:

Oh, and be sure to wave to your fellow riders as your pass...

Quote from: RedShiftBe conspicuous, but be polite as well.

With the way people drive here, that's pretty fecking tough.  Many thanks to the minivan that changed lanes into me without signaling, even when I honked; the Crown Vic that did the same but at least signaled; the HOV-violating minivan that thought tinted windows would fool everyone, and was plugging along mighty damn slow; the endless stream of left-lane hogs...

I did! I did! I did! I did! I did!
Very pretty weather in S. Cal, but I didn't see many bikes on the freeway! (I saw only 3 bikers...) Where were you guys?!
