One of the guys at my work went 'bike-only' for a year. I can't believe he managed it in this area over the winter...

Lol, it always amazes me when people are amazed at life.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

Someone rides a dark green bike w/sidecar the opposite way of my commute. I noticed a few months ago and I've seen the vehicle pass by enough times that it's apparent it's a regular thing for the rider. I don't know if that person rides every day, but it's regular enough during our mostly cold winter that I consider it pretty hardcore.

Hehe - well, most of my working life I've been a consultant working with other mostly young men.

Now that I'm in a regular employer I never even ask most of the people at work their age or anything - and most people look fairly young and then I'm surprised when they say they are a grandparent.

I'm usually shocked they are old enough for that.

Sure I am a Biker, most of my friends who ride are Bikers.

I can't explain it other than I was born to ride a motorbike.
