So far I have found a nirvana. The bike is liberating. I enjoy riding with friends, and I enjoy doing my own thing as well. I ride and think at the same time. I have a couple of favorite local rides and I never tire of the route. I am not tearing around town, I am touring the country, noticing houses and their architecture,looking at gardens, and just noticing much more than I do when I am in a gage. My riding has become a way to be alone and just enjoy life. I am never bored. I am often thrilled with the mere twist of the right grip. I am glad that the KLR has no more power than it does, or I would be in real trouble. It is the perfect bike for me and I am starting to think very seriously about a week or more solo trip come spring. I am waiting to hear from a couple for guys that want to circumnavigate the state of Maine. I love Maine and think that would be really neat.
My wife is showing concern when I talk of solo trips. I need to understand her fear is really love for me. That's a neat thing. I need to be safe...safer then I am now. I took the safety course offered beginning riders in CT. and would like to take the intermediate course next spring. Gotta think...
