So when is it too many? Well if you go into the garage and you don't know which one to ride that day. You are one short.

HAHA that's awesome, I'm saving this one!

Currently at 4

Thanks for the tips, not sure I would have thought of Buda. Is Pest on the other side of the freeway? LOL Budapest

Riding that time of year sounds great.

I plan on going and have never been to this event.

When tickets are available any recommendation on which ones, any particular sections or is general fine? Must get VIP?

Plan on trailing the bikes most of the way down and then ride a few days before around the Hill Country. So any recommendation on where to stay for the event? Close by or is riding in OK and not a major hassle.

Out of the two, I guess the winter one means a bit more to me. It's when the days start getting longer again.
This one the days start getting shorter

Yea, boo shorter days. LOL

Get out and ride!

North on US Hwy 191 from Jackson Hole, WY to Moran, WY

The best straight road I've ever traveled on the CBR929RR at the speed limit.

The Grand Tetons

I really enjoy a table for the bike.

Big difference between standing & tinkering and laying on the ground trying to get something finished.

Yes I rode both Saturday and Sunday maybe 120 miles over all.

I just needed to get out on the new ride and couldn't handle it.

After the snowmobile parade of vintage machines in Waconia I made the call to take a ride. It had rained pretty good the night before and the roads were in good shape along the white salt look was gone and they were dry.

Of course as soon as I head out West on 212 it starts raining on me at least half the time on the bike. Sunday was clear and the sun broke out.

I have a feeling I'll be getting some saddle time in this summer.

Safety and Riding Tips / Re: Thoughts on Lane Splitting?

« on: July 29, 2015, 03:21:58 PM »

How does it cause the trip to be prolonged if you are passed?

If you're the first in line at a intersection on your bike. How many times have you slowed down the guy behind you? Like never.
How many times are you waiting for the guy in front of you to get up to speed? Like always.

Not once did I see a scooter or motorcycle hold up the first car behind all the bikes that filtered forward.

I found the traffic patterns in Italy fascinating, how everything just moved along and how no matter your mode of transportation, walking, bicycle, scooter, motorcycle, car, truck it just seemed like the smaller mode had the right of way.

AND WAS SEEN!
