Gave them oreos for dinner then dairy queen for dessert. Shit just got real.

Ever since the spontaneous decision to buy that Zx14 things been different. Its almost like an evil omen took hold off me. Its nothing to do with the bike. Just that it was wrong timing, being a new father, rebounding with this bike, temptation to go faster, every thing went crazy. The day i bought the bike to home my family was like "it looks like the devil is sitting in the garage" lol And may be it was the influence of that bad omen that made me make the infamously crappy thread that got me nominated for the asshat race The zx will be the first and last shortest bike ownership ever for me. Anyways long story short, ever since my son was born i have been fighting the "inner fear" when ever i am riding. Always in double mind, always rethinking, never fully enjoying riding like i used to the previous years. But after seeing Jerry switch to a Vstrom from the hawk plus test riding that bike i realize may be the comfortable balance is in that kind of different riding. We used to do ride on the edge and was lucky all these years, certainly it was fun. Didnt want to push that luck anymore. Sold the Zx, and just like i feared kept looking through CL and Cycle trader etc. I knew i was going to rebound now or by next spring for sure. i thought, better to do this right now during good deal time as i dont have trailer etc to buy during winter. And there it was a good deal just siting right there close to home, just went to see the bike and after 4 hours i was riding it home. But this one will be staying with me for years like my VFR. Again sorry for the old crappy guess game. No more guessing game here is the bike 2015 Vstrom 650 ABS regular model. As i cant do multiday trips any time soon, will be setting this up for one day long rides. More touring than sport ride. More breathing fresh air than slicing through them. More enjoying the view from upright sitting than tunneled focus on the road ahead. More endorphins than adrenaline

Depends on the occasion.

Great ride today. Super roads. Good company. Thanks guys. Oh yea. I think the new Nivin 2 wheeler should be broken in. Break in pace should have done it.

Home safe, great day to ride and good ride guys

Wtf is hardvard?

Like the Queen (UK), the Pope is basically another monarch. The last Roman Emperor. More or less harmless. The only annoyance is being preached to on several moral fronts by a guy that can't get his own organization into the gender equality game. I've whined about that before. So, carry on.

Oh yea, we fired up at&t uverse on demand an hour ago. Popcorn with lots of butter and salt. And koolaid.

Current breakfast plan is donuts and fruit loops.

So does duct tape.

Nyquil works great

According to the Bible, when Christ was crucified and the veil was torn, all who believe now have direct access to the Father God. At this point, I have a hard time associating Catholicism with Christianity at all.

The Pope is a figure head that lives on top of shit tons of world treasures secured by conquering countries and land in the name of Catholicism. .He puts on a happy face and says to do good to others while the Church asks for 40% of your salary so they can survive.

Grab the brake, dump the clutch. Like a boss.

The MSF will tell you that it's unsafe to take either hand off the bars to turn the key.
