Touring is what I love most, but truth be told time limits me to mostly just cruising. I would have voted all the aboce except for the street carving. I'm pretty sedate these days. Haven't gotten a ticket in over 20 years now.

guess i'm with Gummi on this one, a bit of everything.
been out every chance i get, anytime old cow-town co-operates with half decent weather, even if its just a 30 minute ride after getting home from work, of course can't play too much in the back road twisties but a little scoot gives you that fix you need till the tulips come out..
take care guys,

Ride On...

I think mostly I like to tour, prefering to take long trips checking out new places, but I've been known to cruise, carve and commute. I said "all" myself. I think most of the regulars here fit into the "all" catagory. I think in the northern US and in Canada it is rare to find a 365 commuter, since only the most hardy and experienced would brave ice or snow on the road. I ride as much as I can all year round, but in the winter it is reduced to a couple times per month. In the summer I use every excuse I can to ride.

I'm more into cruising these days. I love going on long rides for a few days at a time. Northern Ontario and Quebec are great rides.

cruising all the way especially on cayon / back country road, but for the gas at this price and commuting in traffic, I found myself take my bike out more often.

Define cruising. If it involves riding around town just to putt around, I don't do it. If it involves cruising the back roads at a "spirited" pace I do that. Everything else pretty much applies.
I would be the old, slow guy. Just let me know where you are going and I'll try to get there before you leave.

I selected cruising for the simple fact that regardless which of the options I am engaged in ...........................I'm Cruisin' !
