That may sound really off but thing is you just have to accept everyone for who they are and watch some.

I've spent a lot of time camping with my 4wd and adventure trailers and over the years have run into a number of folks on their big GS's in the midst of epic journeys - cross continent, around the world, etc. The romance of that type of journey and the minimalistic packing (vs towing a trailer :naughty: ) has always had an appeal. I figure I'm not getting any younger, so I may as well get started if I'm going to do an epic journey too. :bandit:

Exploration is a family tradition.

I have this urge to explore and the bike helps me explore more in less time.

I like it for the thrill of seeing what's around the next bend. For the sheer fun of exploration.

I love the rush, the scenery, the risks, the great friends that seem to come hand in hand with this sport but mostly I love the great outdoors.

The Rush: when your a noob and you come out of a corner hot with one leg still down and the front wheel is still climbing and half your brain says wooo boy and the other half says pin it bitch.

The scenery: Well let's face it if your lookin somewhere else your going down brother.

The Risks: Now here is the eternal grab and pull for sure.

The Great Friends that you meet: PRICELESS

The Great Outdoors: nuff said.

Believe or not, that was the first question of of my wife's mouth. Bike is fine. Rode it today. Very nice bike. It was a steal. I bought it for my son but I may see some time on it. Great change of pace.

Why I ride is simply because I still can and I hope this never changes.
But old age is sneaking upon me.

There is no lean holder but if some cager?
I want enough for medical but is there a good drawing a line in the sand I need to know about?
I think because it is street legal I will ride it more than I'm thinking I will on street.

Have not rode street since 85.

A motorcycling section too! This newb is finding Bogley to be quite the hang out, thank you!

I ride because I can. Few things top the thrill of pinning it in a massive sandbowl out in Glamis, I LOVE riding. It's something when you are doing it right, your mind is 100% focused on the task, the bike is an extension of you and it's heaven.

I recently moved to southern Utah and I'm working on getting used to riding hard-pack and knobbies in general. It's definitely NOT like riding sand, but some of the views and adventures are well worth it. I'm looking forward to exploring some of the sandy and not so sandy riding areas around here. Brrrap!
