You know that you have been riding a while when....

[rbentnail]

You admire the fortitude of the likker cycle winter riders.

 

[Powerman]

You know you're a dumb *** when you point out road obstacles with your foot when nobody is riding behind you.

(I was kinda hungover )

 

[Bugnatr]

You keep thumbing the turn signal on the self cancelling switch on the Wing.

 

[timsfjr]

Need to replace the wear bolts on the foot pegs from grinding them off in the twisties.

 

[timsfjr]

No longer engage in an oil discussion. Or car tire debate. Lol

 

[frankenfeejeer]

Spend almost 2 full minutes in the car looking for the start switch after turning the key to ON...

I actually did that deliberately on my 'wing to try to reinforce the habit on my ZRX -- but I still forgot sometimes.

 

[beachy]

when your wife doesn't ask "where did you go" anymore, she knows, riding

 

[Fred W]

When you've done 500 miles with your Butt on fire and it doesn't bother your butt in the least anymore....

... In fact you are looking for someplace else to go.

 

[TripperMike]

....when your hands feel like they need to be doing something whenever you roll up to a red light......in the wintertime......in your car.

 

[radiummadman]

when your wife says you are easier to live with after you have been on a ride.

 

[ahchiu]

Hitting the turn signal cancelling switch every 5 min.

 

[CAJW]

When you start to relate to Carver's posts.

 

[Silent]

When you try lane splitting with your sedan...

I actually lane split my RV once

------

When you have more helmets than hats

I did it in my pickup, but I was sliding at the time and the people in the right and left lanes were somewhat agitated about it.

When you find yourself looking for the rear view mirrors on your riding lawnmower.

 

[Old Guy]

When you find yourself looking for the rear view mirrors on your riding lawnmower.

You folks keep reminding me of things I actually do.

I catch myself turning my head to look through the corners on my riding lawnmower. It's just a habit.

 

[BkerChuck]

When you start to refer to years of events in terms like

"that's the year we went to Sturgis"

"that's the year Rossi left to ride for Ducati"

"that's the year Yamaha painted the FJR that gorgeous Black Cherry color"

 

[Allen_C]

you sit around December through February longing for better weather, so to occupy your addiction you scour the internet for ideas of how to customize your ride even more so it is your and only yours!

When you buy your latest motorcycle, put it in the garage, and it takes the wife six days to notice.
