Pulled up in a country town for a drink while out riding yesterday.....

... elderly bloke waiting outside the fish & chip shop for his dinner nods towards my M1100 and says....

"that bike sounds REAL sick...."

"its OK, its supposed to sound like that  :)"

"reckon it'll get you home?"

"yeah, its fine  :)"

Points to his farm truck full of junk... "we can chuck it in the back of the truck.... sounds REAL sick"

"thanks, its fine really.  Its supposed to sound like that"

"..... hope you dont have far to go then"..........

He didnt know me, but he knew I was too stupid to realise I needed help.... and drove off with his dinner, leaving me to imminent mechanical destruction.

It was a kind offer  :)

time on my bike...bending it into the turn and feeling that touch of exhiliration as it does exactly what it was designed to do flawlessly!

this and so many other things . ..  like my two dogs jumping all over right before we go for our walks . . . or a beautiful sunrise or sunset . . .

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.
