(These qualities are closely related, too, I believe.) And I've known some smart people in my time.<br /><br />As for the vintage (even new vintage) bikes: I'll need a second lifetime to get into that. Anyone know where I can get a second lifetime, cheap?Melissa Holbrook Piersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15617752678155038816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333594380363882958.post-34453170733678531342010-05-25T11:19:35.055-07:002010-05-25T11:19:35.055-07:00Absolutely eloquent and brilliant.

This was a good ...Congratulations on the new bike!<br /><br />This was a good opportunity to reflect on the friends I've met since returning to motorcycling. I have been unable to ride lately not because of illness, lack of time, or even poor weather; I've had too much on my mind. I haven't been able to focus well enough to ride safely. <br /><br />Friends that have only the common interest of motorcycles have invited me for a ride, and upon hearing that I'm too distracted the response is almost identical: "If there is anything I can do to help just let me know. Anything."<br /><br />It is a net. That's a nice feeling. Difficult to understand or explain how it happens, but nice.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08326095828030173795noreply@blogger.com
