Like a horse !  You've had enough of Valkyries ? That one is practically new isn't it ? If you know when you are going to be here I will try to coordinate the SoCal and Phoenix guys for a meetup.  cooldude

 TRY to do at Least one long(ish) ride a year. IF I had a LOT more money I'd be the biggest-my age group-M/C ridin gypsy ya ever seen! But the points in the article as we are well aware of are valid. Haven't met any strangers whilst ridin-just friends I haven't talked with YET!  2funny Specially like talkin with folks in their middle 60 to their 80s or more when I let them in on one or two of my "medical" issues and the LOOKS on their faces when I tell them how cursed good I feel after a 500-700 mile day in the saddle.  coolsmiley Also when "they" say-we can't do that-my reply is-you only THINK you can't do this.  Wink And again-as we are aware of-hard too splain-HAS to be experienced!  cooldude RIDE SAFE

DK ,good find,also, get yourself a set of Daniel Meyers's  books. I am in the process of re re reading them again. I think he covers it quite well. Seems it makes not riding a little more bearable. Only 2 more months should have good weather.
