Care to explain what this means?Not judging at all.
In excess of the ton way to often on the back roads across the rural farming areas, (think daily).....(many times each day), Pushing the corners on some of the tight roads till the pegs are dragging and on the white line (edge of the road) at the exit of the corners and at times wheeling out of the corners and pulling power wheelies. Just riding like an ass. Some heavy metal in the headphones and just throttle on way more than it should be.
Mind you no one is around to witness my asshat riding, but still need to slow down some.

First day riding in to the new job. Need to find a better route. The one I took had way to many stop signs.
It's also the best cycle parking I've ever experienced.
And then I road this after work/

Put on just over 600 miles today. Rode in my first Rally, the Team Lyle MN. Weather could have been a little less wet and windy, but a great time! I ended up placing 5th, which is way better than I'd expected. Anyway, I think I've been bitten.....

Just under 600 miles going to and returning from the Leland end of the Slimey Crud.
Amazingly dry. Really glad I ignored the weather reports.

Hey Ed what are you trying to do; wear that thing out? It's so funny talking to guys that have bikes that are 4 or 5 years old with less than 5,000 miles on them and saying, hell I put that many miles on in a month before. Then you get the long line of excuses of why they can't ride or don't. It's funny when they are talking to me about it and I don't even care how much they ride...... Just that they do ride even if it is just a little bit.

I believe most of the silly weather was south of Leland . . . . .. you know, right over where ever my helmet was for most of the day.

In to work in the drizzle, home in blazing sunshine. Damn, that sucked.
Just spent an hour cleaning the chain and re-lubing. I fear it may be replacement time.

250 miles on Monday afternoon, and a similar (but different)
250 miles home today. It was a business trip, so I got paid .55 cents per mile and I figure I came out $200+ ahead on fuel. Plus, I got about 8 hours of paid recreating out of the deal between the trip down and back.
Found this neat little spot on the way home:

Rode to Lofgren Performance to get the new bike broken in on the dyno.
Rode home and did the first oil change.

I thought you could just ride it to break it in. Why the dyno?
