LOL, once my bike sputtered as it ran out of gas, luckily I was on a giant down-hill + there was no oncoming traffic. I coasted for about 1/2-3/4 mile into a gas station on the other side of the street.

...like turning off the busy road you take and seeing the country roads winding off ahead of you

...like seeing the first "curves ahead" sign on a ride

...like finally getting far enough out in the country to lay on the throttle and listen to the engine wind the whole way up.

Like when you ride 400 miles just to ride 200 more and then turn around and ride 400 back home and the warmest it gets is 55 degrees but you don't care because the only two things that matter are making sure your gear stays on the back and that your tires keep hooking up.

I get very angry and shout at people when they are in the apexes of my favorite corners driving ms. Daisy when I want to go fast.
