Road trip with a guy I work with last summer. Had a great time. Learned some new stuff bout him. But.....
If I make a trip this summer, prolly be alone. As stated elsewhere, no-one to answer to.

Sorry I don't own a softail, but I wanted to chime in and say that I ride alone. I can set my own pace, no one to tell me where to eat, where to sleep, etc. etc. Well, unless my wife is with me.........

I ride alone. For me, that was kind of the whole point of getting the bike. After raising and traveling with kids I want the freedom to stop (or not) when I want and stay at a site as long as I want to. Eat at Burger King? OK. Eat at a much nicer restaurant? OK.
It's what ever I want to do.

Alone. No desire to be in a MC and none of my buds have bikes.

This is a good question/topic. I like to ride with other guys but they ride like snails and that is good but can be booooring. So yup, I like to ride like a d!ckhead sometimes but when I do that I ride by myself and just make a decent playlist on the iPod. I do like to ride with guys from church and their wives too when we wanna get something to eat.

Ha forgot to add...

Today some Night Train with no baffles and engine work pulled up from behind....he snapped it to let me know. Soon as we got out of the neighborhood it was game on for a few blocks until we went our merry way...a couple quick nods and a few annoyed cagers. Fun stuff.

That's when it's fun to ride with someone else haha. No rules or comitments is my point.

I ride with the wife most of the time. We rarely ride with others unless we run into a pack on a road trip then we might tag along and meet the people. We joined the local HOG chapter, did two meetings and one ride, then cut them loose. Too many riding rules. Who wants to ride 30 MPH? Stupid!
