maybe you need to appreciate the finer thing about riding - a curve well executed, the smell of newmown hay, flowers, the sunlight coming from overhead, the wind in your beard. them's the real rush - the rest is pseudomachismo.

But Camle, I do appreciate the finer points. I love to slide a knee around a corner, find the perfect line around a turn. I have gone to track schools and try to do a track day from time to time. I am no squid who's only skills are wheelies and stoppies. Like I said before, my wheelies are almost exclusive to empty roads and carefully picked spots. I love riding Texas FM 337, which is the Mecca of motorcycle roads in Texas. The hills, the turns, the smell of bluebonnets in the spring. It is all part of the experience.
