What I love is, guys who use year and model for name. Of course they have not owned that bike in a decade or so.

 

Just profession for me. No real creativity.

 

Do we have any other gods?

 

You only need one, choose wisely, the remmifications can be eternal.

 

Do you care to explain how you arrived at your user name?

 

Consulting the online dictionary came up with this:

round·er

noun

1. 1.
   informal•North American
   a person who frequents bars and is often drunk.

This explains a lot...

 

I sold my “last” bike a couple of months before I met my wife 35 years ago. Every few years she’d ask:

Her: “So, you think you’ll ever want another bike?” (Which was code for “I hope you don’t want another bike”)

Me: “No, I think I’ve scratched that itch.”

This back-and-forth went on for thirty years. Till both my kids were out of school and out of the house. Then a couple of neighbors got back into riding, and one said, “YER GONNA GET ONE TOO, AREN’T YA?.”

Which I did in 2020, and have had four touring bikes since.

​​​​​​….it’s what my wife said.

 

I was looking at the first few pages and was recognizing folks I used to see that are no more. Makes me wonder what happened to some of them. Me I just forgot to grow up in my head anyway.

 

First three letters of my long Polish last name.

It's been a nickname since childhood.

It's also my "official" road name.

 

Again? OK.
