You know you love to ride when...

[ChevyFazer]

When you leave stuff deliberately at one of your friend/relative houses so you have an excuse to get back out on the bike to go get it

When you go on a road you've never ridden before, stop and do it again the other way because you enjoyed it so much... Even though your already late for where your going.

(Yesterday Afternoon)

When you leave with the intent (ah excuse/reason) of seeing family but don't stop and see them because you used up all your time going back and forth in the 10 miles of twisties! :spank:

my - bad, it's happened 3 times now!

 

[Marthy]

Still with a big smile in your helmet after 6 hrs on the saddle and you're a$$ hurt but you don't want to stop!

...a straight line is not the shortest distance between two points.
...traffic is pleasure.

 

[Nelly]

when your willing to ride in any temperature just as long as the road conditions are ok

Even if the roads are crap....

 

[motojoe122]

You AGATT to go to the 7-11 ONE block away.

 

[Alabusa]

Go down wearing no gear and give the road rider rash.

When it's too crappy to ride...so you find yourself sitting on the bike in the garage. (My daughter just shook her head and walked away when she saw me doing this)

When you can go on a 2,400 mile road trip (like I did 2 weeks ago) and never feeling like you are getting tired and want to nod off like you do in a car. It just doesn't happen when I'm on the bike.

Remember that feeling you used to have on Christmas morning when you opened all your presents and were happy and nothing else seemed to matter? That's the way I feel every time I go out to get on the bike and ride. It's the only thing in life that makes me feel like that consistently.

When you put off finding a girlfriend until you buy your bike. 'Cause you know if she tries to tell you you can't have one you'll want to Falcon punch her so hard that she'll be able to tell you what the dark side of the moon looks like when she comes to.

(Would never actually hit a woman, but I'll sure as hell let the scenario play through my head as I tell her to GTFO)

When you decide you want gatorade at 8pm, so you ride 120 miles from Tempe, AZ to Prescott, AZ to walk into a gas station, drink your gatorade, and ride the 120 miles back so you can get a good, hydrated 4 hours of sleep before work in the morning.

(that was my saturday night/sunday morning. haha)

I tell my wife late on Sunday afternoon that I have to wash the bike and need take it for a run to dry out the brakes.....and ask if she wants to come.
She said " What, come out when the brakes aren't working?". I said it only takes a minute to dry them out It'll be done by the time we go a hundred yards.
She then said "Why would I want to come out then?" I said, "Coz if I fire up the bike I have to go out for at least 1 hour"

We were out for about 1 1/2 hours.....but the brakes were dry!




ANY EXCUSE WILL DO

 

[DownrangeFuture]

When you've had the bike for a year, and you still go out in the garage just to look at it.

Or when it's a tropical storm and so you can't ride, so you tear the bike down and put her back together (cleaning everything along the way of course), just so you can spend some time with the bike.

I may be guilty of this one.

On that note...I'm going to get productive...for 15 minutes. :thumbup:

When you're driving home from work in your car and you find yourself wishing you could be "out there" with everyone else. Then you realize you are, you're just in your car.
