Default Why we ride

Check out this video trailer, pretty much sums up why we ride, and explains why we ride to all the non riders. Really good video even though its just a trailer

Who do you ride with...Since you're in the same general area as I am.
I gave up on riding with groups out here, out of control and dangerous on good days (they are all wanna be RRs). I usually only ride with one to two others.
Keep safe

I've met a few people from the forums I pmed you about, went to a few bike nights too. Where are you from? I'm also not into riding crazy or anything too.

North Riverside, I used to hit up the BN at Zorbas and the one at Friscos (back when I worked at Diamond Bar Honda). I prefer the back way to Big Bear, or cruising up to Julian or Idllywild. If I need to get crazy, then a track day at Fontana or Chuckawala will fill my need for speed (well, as much speed as my Buell will allow )

"It's like trying to learn how to play a violin. It's just hideous and then all of a sudden 'oh my God. I know how to ride this thing now."
That just sums up my first track day. I hope to one day get to "I know how to ride this thing now."
