One week of motorcycle ownership...
So I’ve wanted to write this down, but I think I’ve already told too many people to post a complete story.
So instead a short list.
In the single week of riding I have (in order):
1. Navigated the traffic circle in Pittsfield with one mirror.
2. Hit 95mph or so.
3. Been pulled over for going too fast.
4. Been let go without even a warning.
5. Ran out of gas.
6. Fucked up electric starter.
7. Found out that a two hour ride plus only wearing a jacket and tshirt in april can make you really cold.
8. Discovered that my little brothers ski clothing makes good cold weather riding gear.
9. Broke clutch cable.
10. Drove 50 miles to home from the fam’s without coming to a full stop at traffic lights/stop signs.
11. Bug guts can blind you at night.
12. Repaired Big Baby Jesus in lenox coffee parking lot.
13. After one of the best rides ever, almost got creamed by giant black SUV with tiny white girl behind the wheel.
14. Discovered the quiet calm place I go to when confronted with death.
15. Woken up depressed beacause I can’t ride due to rain/cold.
