Default Anyone else love riding to this degree?

If I am not working or at school, I am riding. If it is daylight, I am out. Family? What is that? I go on 400 mile rides that consume the day...by myself. Every resource I have is directed towards the "keep my *** rolling fund"...I get up at 6am even after getting out of work at midnight to throw on a suit and hit the canyons...Odd?



p.s. I still love it even though some douchwhore tried to throw dirt at me with his hoe today. Clearly I will just have to go back and devour his children.

LOL .. this comment could be broken down into so many discrete ways.....

But anyways I know EXACTLY what you mean.. (but i guess there is a reason why i work full time and partially own a shop in my home town ) Dont worry dude! Its totally natural. Do you still live w/ your parents or are you married/engaged(if you dont mind me asking)?

Whenever I'm bored I always ride, so pretty much that's every day. If I haven't ridden for 1 or 2 days it feels like it's been forever.

I really love riding, I try to ride everyday but I don't like riding alone. It gets really, really boring...

I would love to be adamant about riding, but I can't trust NOVA riders.

It is good for a twisty beginner like myself. Its so close for me (about 1.5) and a nice little ride to head up to during the week. Glendora mt. road is a better one...a little tight in some areas. I went up to azusa canyon last monday and that was a nice little run. Like I said...its a little different because I am a beginner at the twisties!

Whoa! Glendora mt. road (a.k.a GMR haha) is pretty intense. Ya its pretty curvy, and there are some hairpin turns up in there. If you're not too careful, you can fall off and down down down to the bottom. Haven't been there in a while, but the times I went (last summer), me and some friends go in our cars and ran the course. Be careful of some gravel and stuff, and ALWAYS go with someone else. Its a long way down the road and there's practically no reception up in there. Haven't tackled the twisties yet, but its a fun and challenging road.

I ride pretty much every weekend....Mullholland Raceway ...Although the past two weeks, one friend overshot a sharp turn and almost fell off the cliff, and just this past week my bro on his repsol ate it on dirt patch which then caused my friend who came around the turn to swerve and lose control and end up losing his bike right on top of my bro...Other than that.....Those roads call for some intense, fun riding...


*Wear leathers no matter how hot it is.....
