You’re so churlish, is it nice in your little hermit hovel?
[QUOTE=FarmersSon post_id=1641978783]I'm still curious about what kind of riding Rabbit likes. Day trips, maybe? I had no feeling as to the size of the UK, but from a quick search it looks like you could drive across the country in a long day. While I was a grad student one of the research professors would rent a Harley every year. He and his wife would go with another couple and they would have a week long ride to one of the national parks in the US. I remember them going to Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, etc. They were into it quite a bit, to the point where the bought riding leathers, just for the annual vacation. He never bought a motorcycle so far as I know, but I haven't been in touch for 10+ years.
This is more my style (not my picture):

Commuting in cities less keen. People are morons
No point thinking on it tbh

Its sounds really nice, I'm sure I would enjoy it.
If I didn't have any responsibilities I think it would be cool to pick up an Africa Twin and ride from Washington to Panama.

3 hours to us is a heck of a long distance to go in country
And every ride needs a tea shop or country pub
But we think nothing of flying to another country for a night or two

Just saying I've seen a lot of unhappy men with women. I've never seen an unhappy man on a Jet Ski, Motorcycle, Dirt Bike, SXS, etc.

Don’t see the appeal at all lmao. Even aside from the danger.
Why don’t you just get a nice Chanel purse or diamond earrings or something nice like that instead.

Winding country roads, great scenery. There’s a gorgeous route down south around Box Hill but nothing beats Scottish roads
