Do you ever just not "feel" it when you head out for a ride?

What SJ58 said. "He will keep you in perfect peace if your mind is stayed upon Him".

I have had that a few times. Usually before a longer ride. Ridden through it on most occasions. Had brakes go out on another. Just stay alert and within the first 10-20 miles, life is good again.
Cheers

I have felt that way before, but the feeling goes away after a few minutes on the bike!

Seems like the only thing I still love is coitus & eating.
It gets worse ....good luck ..

This past January the flu kicked my *** big time. One of the days I decided to try riding. I spent 15 minutes bundlng up and plugging in my gloves. I rode for about 10 minutes and felt like crap. I went home and waited until I felt almost human again.

To the west of my home is the city and the big roads. To the east, there are miles and miles of gravel roads through farm country. If I don't feel up to riding the big roads on the big bikes, I get on my DR650 and ride the country roads. It's like a whole different world.

I've gotten that "feeling" before but I also have no choice but to ride it out and be more cautious.
I also have experianced rides that I didn't look forward to but had to.... like getting off work at 3am and it's raining hard and cold; but then everything just comes completly together making it a very enjoyable ride.
