Nope, you're not the only one. The vast majority of my riding is done solo. Nothing like a nice day, good tunes and just getting on the scoot and going wherever the road takes me!

Cheers!

Riding alone is fine and in no way is it crazy to enjoy it. On longer rides or rides that are going somewhere specific I really enjoy the company of a few friends and in some cases a whole group...

I ride alone often, I didn't used to but it seems friends of mine don't have time to ride anymore
now I prefer to ride alone most of the time. I can go where I want at the speed I want without
having to come to an agreement with anyone

I do 90% of my riding alone. Has it's pros and cons but I enjoy it. I'm hoping to get the wife
into riding next year, which would be cool.

I prefer to ride alone. There is a group of 4 of us though, that ride together often. Alone I can go where I want, how I want and at the speed I want to go. Very theraputic.

Not crazy at all. I ride alone alot. It's very relaxing for me and I don't have to worry about other riders agendas.

Ride alone most of the time. Less to worry about when your not looking what your pals are doing.

Most of the time. I prefer not to worry about the safety of someone on the bike with me or having to watch the bike in front of me. I like to turn when I want, stop when I want and go home when I want.
I am a loner.
