Default New from Washington

Hi Guys & Gals,

I've been riding on and off for the last 15 years... mostly off for the last 10. I learned how to ride on a 1981 Yamaha Maxim 650 and a 1983
Honda XR 350. I just bought a 1996 F3 (trying to "ease" back into riding) and I have to say it sure is nice to be back on two wheels. I mostly commute
on my bike to beat gas price, but I do enjoy the occasional road trip every now and then, especially along the twisty roads around the Palouse.

See ya all on the roads.

Wish I could ride my bike to work everyday. Unfortunately I have to wear a suit so riding with a suit on a bike would be hard. I cannot haul the suit to work because there's no bike bag that will fit a suit in it. I envy you.

It's funny, your post was very similar to one I made a few weeks ago. I too just got back into riding in the Seattle, WA area for my commute to beat gas prices, but also to ride in the carpool/HOV lanes.

I tried to ease back into riding, but I'm already starting to discover the joys of fuel-injection and effortless first gear power wheelies. Makes me feel like a crazy/dumb kid all over again.

Welcome back!

I wish I could ride to work also. I don't like to ride in the rain and with working 24 hours and unable to go home I don't like to take the chance.

Welcome.
