Not sitting comfortably in a cage, in a queue with my brain in neutral. Feeling fully a alive as I accelerate past all the slow traffic.

Coz my bike is awesome. I also don't have room for kids on it.

What a shame

Sometimes I might spend time with other people on their bikes, like Mr Pegasus. His bike is also awesome, and when we are together on the road (without kids, which isn't often ) we have a jolly awesome time, feeling awesome together.

Now isn't that just awesome
