So... I was in the middle of my work out... like 4 miles into it... and I see this motorcycle coming at me in the bicycle lane.  I get closer and its a beautiful Grey Monster with red wheels... and the dude is pushing it... wearing his helmet and leather jacket... I jog right on by... I thought about asking if he needed help... but I was too tired and he was a block from the gas station... I thought about going back once I got home... but that was like 30 minutes later and I forgot... anyhow I feel like a total jerk, ass hat, butt munch... etc

Dude... if you see this. Sorry. I should have offered to help.

 

10 Hail Mary's and 5 All Father's should cover it.

You know what you're problem is? 

We haven't gone out drinking in WAY too long!

Who knows... with alcohol... I may have offered to push him and see if we could compression start an out of gas bike...    ... anyhow ... I could have probably posted this in the spotted section too... 

grey with red wheels would be an elusive Senna yes?

you are a butt nugget

for penence

you owe all of us a beer

I am offering beers...

Huh.  It wasn't Daric or Jeff from Cheshire Motorsports pushing it, by chance?

Reason that I ask is that my (gray with red wheels) M1000S.i.e. is at Cheshire for...

...wait for it...

...a lingering cold start problem.

I would have recognized them. Plus it was in Tigard. Cheshire is a tad far for pushing it. 

I almost bought a grey/red senna-scheme M1000Sie.  This is when I was living in Iowa, Ducatis were all a long bloody ways away, and this beautiful example showed up for sale in Peoria, Illinois.  Would've been an excuse to go riding with my great uncle Tom, too.  Then reality set in and I realised a 1000DS motor wouldn't have been brilliant for a first bike... so I wound up buying a 900SS upon moving back to Portland .  Whatever.

Anyway... I'll stop rambling now.

Ryan: thanks for posting a public apology to the rider of that Monster.  We all do dick things, or just thoughtless things sometimes... the difference between the decent folks and the asshats is that the decent folks own up to it.

Happy motoring, everyone  [moto]

Speaking of Cheshire - They'll be accepting plastic soon. 

They'll be working on Japanese bikes? 

Ha ha ha! 

Dude, that sucks... I think you owe G and I a beer tomorrow...

That was you passed up jerk! Now you have to help me move in. 

Was it really you Dave?
