Default Is Your Sled "Transportation" or a "Toy"?

Mine is a toy......

I even told the wifey that before we bought it.

Prior to buying it I said to her, "We're buying this as a toy, not transportation, please don't get pissed if it sits in the garage for a period of time."

It's sat for 3 months before, she's never bitched once, she's a peach.

I'm not a "biker" or "hardcore", I just enjoy riding when I feel like it.


So.............. what about your sled?

I wish.. If I didn't have a little one and lived where it was warmer I would make it my only vehicle.. When I was younger I went like 5 years without a car by choice. You can always rent a car/truck if you really need to. But for now I have a car and a bike.

Mine is transortation only.

During the week it transports me back and forth to work.

On my days off it takes me a lot of places I wouldn't go otherwise.

Mine is Seasonal transportation and a toy. Do I need it no. Did I want it...yes! Do I ride it...unfortunately only in the summer to and from work and beyond!!

I know you say yours is just a toy, but you live in LV. I could only dream of having riding weather all year round and you let it sit for 3 months. To each their own I guess!!
