I've been known to do that. I also think about anything and everything.

Thats the beauty of it. Nothing matters save your braking, line, turn in point. No mortgage, vet appointments, work. Honeydos... just noise, speed, and vibration.

when I'm riding agressively... then only the riding comes to mind...


but seeing as most of my rides are more "senic" now that I've gotten the DRZ... I tend to just let my mind wander...

I'm much more at home with my thoughts in my truck... even more so on my bike.

I have tried looking and admiring. But I just keep getting pulled back into the road. Maybe I should get a touring bike or DS to slow me down a bit. I still hanker for a GS800...

Honestly... I think about everything in life. I pray. I jam to my music... I listen to the motor, look at the great country side I'm riding thru
