Default Without a Bike....

Well, today was the first day in a long time that I had to drive my truck to work. I love my truck, but it was still kinda depressing. Both my Softial and my Sportster are in the shop getting makeovers. I got up this morning and was all ready to jump on the scoot and head for work, when I remembered I didn't have one to ride. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up the Sportster tomorrow, but the Softail will be in the shop for a couple weeks.

I can't imagine the separation anxiety that you must be going through.

If it will help, drive your truck with head sticking out the window.

The smaller Jeeps (CJ, YJ, etc.) with the fold down windshields, and removable doorsare the best if you can't ride.
And as far as I know no state requires a helmet if your in a Jeep.

I have a PT Cruiser that gets the job when I cant ride. It's got aPOS 4 banger that has no speed but its all about the looks! Smooth Comfy ride in pure retro Style with all the Mod-Cons.

I can't remember the last time I drove my car. I have a 64 chevelle I love to death, but I can't make myself drive it when the bike is so much fun. I dread rainy days, and sometimes ride anyway.The car only gets 10mpg, too!
