  • "Weird" habbits

    I was wondering if any of you (i suppose they are a lot!), has any weird habbits, when coming home from a ride!
    I always pet my bike e think "thanks" (for not falling with me) loool
    And you?

    After an especially harrowing ride I will sometime pat the tank and say "Good Girl". I can almost hear her purr!

        I'm not sure it's a "weird" habit , (I'm non-denominational, but I believe in spirituality)....I say my personal prayer for protection, and give thanks when I'm home again. So far, its been working.
        sigpicLife throws you curves......enjoy the ones you get when riding.

                I have a certain order I put my gear on. More to do with my OCD than anything else.

                  Who doesn't talk to their bike? It would be weird NOT to.

                    I lock the garage, come inside and have a smoke. And I do NOT talk to my bike.

                      I simply say thanks for getting me home.. Not sure that its to the bike or some higher power, but either way I'm letting them know.

                              8K is where they wake-up, it's where they want to be run.

                              It's like walking a greyhound dog, you've got to let the Kat off the leash once in a while. "(i do keep it under8 K,,, generally)"

                              I say this with a smile not as being critical. Ride your Ride.
