some people just like to bitch and moan. In my experience, these are people that shouldnt be on motorcycles anyways. tell em to suck it up and put their big boy pants on.

I'll ride 45 minutes to meet people all the time, hell I'll ride 2 hours just to meet people for a ride, just ask Gas Man, P.O.D, and Drewpy.

neebs if you were in a days distance id def come down and cruise with you guys. anyway, some friends and i went to wildwood this weekend, nice ninety mile trip with camelbaks on (btw taking a sip on the highway costs about 7 bucks the first time you do it) my roomate however put his bike in the back of a pickup, for which we of course gave him massive amounts of shit for bitching out.

Awwwww...

Nah, seriously though, I'm not talking about THAT kind of riding. Not everyone wants to (or can) do serious longrange touring. I'm talking about people bitching about half an hour when we're already PLANNING an all day ride. The way I see it, that ride TO the ride just means your bike (and your butt!) will already be nice and warm once the real ride starts!

Shit a week ago, my friend called me up at 11:30, right after church, to see if I wanted to ride an hour and a half with him to go look at a new bike. We met 15 minutes later, filled up, and were gone.

I have started getting luggage for indy. Bought this tankbag used for 20 bucks and plan on getting the nelson-rigg standard saddle bags and rear tote bag. I also bought this scala rider teamset headset package for rider-passenger communication, gps bluetooth, and cellphone bluetooth used off of a guy on a local forum for 125. Said its been used once on a 20 minute ride, but he never had a passenger after that. I'm hoping it will reach to another bike, but i'll have to see. He is selling a ton of stuff (including his x-box 360, this, chatterbox, xd9) to make a downpayment on a new r6 after a car pulled in front of him in a parking lot a couple weeks ago.

heck, i don't even get the bike out if i am gonna be gone less than an hour. it ain't worth it. half the fun is getting there.

i just took a huge ride on my harley (the first of many, i hope) last friday with my xl forum peeps. we were gone from 12:30 until 6pm. now that's some riding! i loved every minute of it. i wish i had more free time to do that more often, but i definately do what i can. some people just don't make sense.

I don't get it either. People look at me like I'm crazy for taking my scooter on a 70-miles each way trip. Sure, it takes longer on the streets instead of the highway, but what the hell. That's what it's there for.
