RE: longest between rides
An itch you can't scratch is always a huge bother. I went a little over a year and a half in the early 90's with my bike sitting in a garage while I was stationed in Panama.

3 weeks last winter when it was below zero with snow on the ground, and 3 weeks again this last spring after I wrecked when it was in the shop waiting to get fixed. I called them every day. They still all know me by name. Yep... it bothered me.

So far 1 1/2 weeks only due to having the tins off for paint. Been thinking of getting a coffee can and putting some gas in it. I think I could make it work what do you think? Screw in the pet **** and one other line to plug some where hum...

4 days last July whenI had to go to Oklahoma (I live in California) for my dad's funeral. Drove me nuts! To make things worse the PGR was at his funeral and that really made me miss my bike! In all seriousness though it was awesome having the PGR there!

RE: longest between rides
I'm pretty much a "fair weather rider"- the bikes usually get put away in October and stay there until April or May. Although anytime the weather gets really nice for a few days in the winter months I will ocassionally take the bike out and ride it to work or something.
