I rode to work this morning for the first time in a long time. I love living close enough to work to take my car or bike again. I hated taking the ride share van.

I didnt ride today, 70% chance of severe thunderstorms. I need to put some miles on. I've had the bike a month now and I only have 650 miles on the bike.

impressive mileage, cutty! my kawi has just over 4,000 on her, and it's 4 years old. that's a paltry 1,000 miles a season. but that's what happens when you have kids. remember that when your lady's biological clock starts winding down.

I wanna do a nightime ride, but there's just plumb no where to go around Houston except long, straight, BORING roads. I need to move.

And itgirl, I got snipped for that very reason (well one of 'em anyway).

Country is where I ride, and generally at night.
During the week, it's my way home.
Weekends its blasting around the lakes, generally gets late before we leave.

and yes, bugs suck

I love night riding but lately deer have been insane.

One thing I really loved is riding through Downtown Atlanta on a weeknight around 10pm. All the working people are home and the drunks are still at the bars and the streets are fairly clear. But you are riding around looking up at beautiful sky scrappers. Plus because of Atlanta's diversity I get to see all kinds of bikes when I ride.

Here is an example with a guy and his girl on a CB550...
