You are not my mommy so I don't listen to you.

Wait! I just realized that your post count is huge and you make a negative remark about post counts which by the way are completely meaningless.

At 71 I am very comfortable at being me. I have nothing to prove to anyone nor do I need to impress anyone. I just live the life that I dreamed of and planned and prepared for. If that bothers you. So what!
Sorry, no offence but you came across the same way to me. Bragging about riding everyday no matter the weather.

I think I would ride in just about any temperature right now, it's been so long. Unfortunately, I'll have to wait until I get state-side again to crank the bike. In the meantime, she's being looked after by good friends.

Be safe where ever you are and thanks for your service. I hope you get home soon for a ride as well.
We get too caught up in the daily mundane crap over here and take it for granted too easily.

Damm It!!! I can't be a real biker. My Island is only 62 something miles long. I can never get 1000 miles away from home unless I take a boat. Dose that count??

Same everywhere,my bikes are parked because the 60wgt oil makes cranking the big motors too hard on the electrics at 3:30/4:00 in the am.Our nights are down into the 30's already,and it's a 34 mile ride to work.Never feel guilty!

You are exactly right. I didn't ride today, but I'm fighting a crappy head cold and riding in the cold doesn't seem to help...but love to ride no matter what, even though I don't live in southern Cal...

OTOH, this thread is funny but it does need to die a dignified death...

I rode yesterday and only saw three other riders...I ride until the roads ice up then I'm in the garage wrenching for Sring...thankfully winters are short here but there's about 6-7 week icy road stretch...
