If you dot liek the gas prices then I guess you have to walk... and who wants to do that when you can cruise?!?!?!?!? And that being said its still less painful that filling up a SUV or a gas hog of a car... these are the times that we live in...
gas isnt going to stop going up... at least not for a long long long time!
Get out there and enjoy the weather and put some miles on no matter what the gas price is!
Wasn't paying attention earlier today and had to flip over to reserve 20+ miles from closest station.
Pulled into the rural Exxon and paid $4.119 per gallon! Another 20 miles down the road it was $3.69. [:@]
so it cost you an extra 2.15 to fill up, look at it this way, better than pushing. plus if you knew that another station was 20 miles away, you could have gotten away with just 1 gal, then filled up when you got there.
The wife and I both ride our own; like many others, riding is our "therapy," and I'e been doing it for 43 years this summer. As I recall, when I started, gas was somethin like 22 cents per gallon......lately we've thought about cutting back on some of the riding, especially since I got laid off a month ago. But as others have figured the cost of a fill up on a bike, so have we.........we ain't cuttin back no more! Screw it! We're riding! In fact.....we're riding even more now cause it's a lot cheaper than the 4wd pick up or even her econo box car! This weekend we did something like 300 miles. "Ride, c'mon baby ride!"

If you thought you were getting screwed, you could have only bought half a gallon and ridden to the cheaper station! That way, they'd have only screwed you out of 25 cents....
