Default Missing my bike

I have made the decision to garage Zuky til the better weather, ain't half missing riding her.

Have to say not had time, between work, dog and Xmas shopping but I am having withdrawal symptoms.

Anyone else having the same?

I am missing both my bikes. Since falling off I've not been my usual all weather rider. Suzy hasn't seen daylight since the Catherine Wheel rideout, and Dave hasn't been ridden in a month. He'll need defibbin!!

I'm missing mine - it's on it's trickle charger as I had my gallbladder out a couple of weeks ago, then fell and broke a couple of ribs last week. Will ride it before christmas though, I'm determined.

Haven't even had chance to get to know my bike properly yet! Doing your test at the end of November is a bit of a bummer

No.

It's only been 218 days since I saw my lovely stealth bike disappear down the road.

and 259 days since I actually rode a bike I can call my own*.

*Only had one test ride on one of those naked CB1000R thingys in the summer.

Surprisingly even though I loved being on a motorbike and it was a huge part of my life, I seriously don't miss having a bike now. Yeah, now and then I'd think it'd be nice to have one and cut through traffic.
