this place is dead.....
so what makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside while you're riding? here's some of my favorites: -thumbing the starter after a long winter and pulling out of the driveway -getting a nice rhythm going while flicking the bike side to side through some turns -accelerating hard out of a good lean i wish i could say touching a knee down or hitting balance point on a wheelie, but i don't have the balls for either

When some jackass ricer thinks they have the fastest car on the road and I don't even have to downshift, to pull away from them with ease. And the bitches. Definitely the bitches.

A hundred miles (or more) of roads I've never been on before.

Putting on my helmet has always made me feel warm and fuzzy...
When I'm out riding...I love to lay it over. There's just something about feeling the suspension set, tires grip, knee draggin and the G forces. I cant get enough. The best is to hit a tight L then a tight R and carve in one continuous motion... I miss it. A few more months to go...

My favorite sensation is the transition in an S-curve, when I go from a good lean to one side, over the top to a good lean on the other.
