I know the feeling! I sold my last bike (a 1981 Harley FXE) back in 1987 after I got tired of putting up with the idiots here in J-ville trying to kill me. Thought I'd never ride again. I don't know what came over me but for some reason, this year the urge hit and here I am, back in the saddle after 20 years! It's funny though. Other than the new scooter having a LOT more torque than the 81 did, when I mounted up for my first ride, it was like I'd never left. I do think my reflexes are a little slower now than they were (ya think?) but I still enjoy putting the knees in the breeze for a nice long ride on a sunny Saturday down here in the Sunshine State.

Ride safe!
