Windmill, all:
Simple is good. Yesterday I took the new blue Moto Guzzi for a nice swan about near the coast, about 100 miles. Day was overcast, cool, light breeze, just a bit of drizzle, dry roads and reasonable traffic. Enjoyed the Zen of the ride to be sure. Tired when getting home.
At times I think about selling my Triumph triple. It is the 675 hot rod, and yeah fast. But, I find the contrast between the refined-smooth-beautiful-comfy Guzzi 750 twin and the screaming razor-sharp Triumph to help keep my interest in riding.
Every once in a while I will ponder either trading a bike, or adding a bike. And do some online, sometimes real time, sometimes test a different bike. So far I have not hit the right change button although I did replace my older Guzzi for a better one last summer. You never know what is out there.
Ride safe and carry on. Oh and home town of Durango, CO just had a classic motorcycle death: Older lady Subaru left turn in front of bike, riders not wearing helmets. Highway 160, a favorite road, but dangerous. Always makes me ponder safety procedures and synchronicity.
