Its a beautiful Sunday with the temp around 70 or so and I'm getting ready for a ride with my Buddy Greg.  Checked my tire pressures, did a pre ride visual, changed out my visor to the tinted one, mapped out a new route I wanted to try, and was just waiting for Greg to call when the wife says she doesn't want me to go because she isn't feeling well and I need to watch the kid.  DAMN DAMN DAMN.  I am so frustrated right now.  I have been wanting to ride all week and now I can't.  Its too bad she is such a good wife or I may have gone anyway.

I hope your not expecting any sympathy. Because if you are, your shit out of luck.

It's 25 degrees and snowing here in New England so you can take your 70 degree weather and.....well you know the rest.  [laugh]

I've been wallowing in my own chaotic and insecure delusions.

Spent last week in Rochester NY, on business, freezing my ass off. Took a nice long ride Saturday just to thaw out

complaining about a situation lots of people would desperately like to be in may not garner a lot of sympathy.

But I do get that it's frustrating when plans change last minute....a frequent thing with children.


best to go with the flow and take a wonderfull opportunity to spend some great daddy time.

I would have liked to have gone for a ride this beautiful Sunday but there's just this little issue called a couple of inches of snow and at 3:40 pm it is 24 degrees.

I just got back off the mountain and it's even cold in South Carolina today. Thirty miles and my fingers are frozen. A short ride is better than no ride though. [thumbsup]

Nope, no sympathy for you.
When I married and had a child, I made the decision that I would put their needs ahead of my own. I even quit riding completely so that I would not leave a widow and orphan behind if I bit it hard. My son is 23 now, making his own way in life, and a very intelligent person with a number of positive attributes, and my wife will be provided for if/when I die. I am now free to ride.







Except when it's 43F and windy, like today.

I know I'm not gonna get much sympathy but its so nice out right now. The only riding I get to do lately is to and from work sitting in traffic.  That's not how I want to be using my new BT-016s.

55-60 today, not a cloud in the sky. Got 150 miles in w/ new twisties and a pistol range session sandwiched in between. But I'd trade it all in for a loving wife and child... wait, no I wouldn't!   [evil]

Yeah...You pretty much got that right.   ;D

Let see....I spent the morning shovelling 6 more inches of fresh snow and the afternoon on ladder putting up Christmas lights.

Oh well....it's -22 Celsius  (-7 Fahrenheit) right now.  I don't think I would have enjoyed a ride on the Monster that much today anyways.  [moto]   [bang]

Oh man, I feel bad for you-I would've mentioned that earlier but I was too busy spending this sunny California day in the twisties.


My wife? She came with me  ;D
