I've been riding bikes since I first got my drivers license for both auto and motorcycles, I've only been without a motorcycle for 2 years since then. It's just the way it is.
The chopper is sold - it was nice, but not used enough to justify keeping. I sure do miss riding in the bike vs. riding on the bike, as that was the feeling of the chopper vs. 'normal' bikes.
My other passion is fast sports cars. Since I can't afford a Ferrari or a Porsche Twin Turbo, a Vette will have to do. Best value for the $'s and wickedly fast.
