    You know you ride the right amount when:

    -Nothing else moves you anymore

    -You have plans for your next 6 months of pay

    -Your Wife/Partner stops asking where your going all the time

    -Relationships have ended for riding time (2up just isn't fun all the time)

    Cuz I dont feel any pain or sorrow or fear anymore. But when I get on the bike I am in complete ecstacy. I dont know if its cuz I am just getting older.

    I fell of this season and didnt really feel anything, except "Gosh!! is my bike ok??"

    I think I need a psychologist

    112. End of season means time to rebuild the engine.

    113. when you have many fancy shiny nice bikes and only one beat up hauler/cage in the garage.

    114. when there are several 2-wheel projects laying in the garage for years and your excuse for not finishing them is "I rather ride then wrench"

    115. you know when of the year Pirelli has the "buy a rear and get a front free" deal. And you try to buy a bulk for next season.

    116. when you open the browser you automatically type "www.gtam...."

    117. when you go to ebay the first thing you search is "CBR 600 F4" or or "fatboy" "goldwing" or "GSXR SARD"

    118. when there is an array of helmet laying around. Even you only use one of them.

    119. when there is a dack of takeoff in your garage start hitting the roof.

    120. when passed by a bike on the road you can name that bike manfacturer, name, cc, year, as well as helmet brand and the jacket brand the rider is wearing.

    121. when you passed by a bike on the parking lot, not only you can name the bike manufacturer, name, cc, year, you can also label every single after market parts on it, as well as rider's aggressiveness and how well the rider treat the bike.

    122. you refuse to move in any house or apartment without any proper shed or garage for your bike. No matter how cheap the rent is.

    123. Sun and beach resort vacation is only a responsibility for spouse and kids. Only bike trip and track day is real vacation for yourself.

    124. your msn list consist of family, friends, coworker and bike buddy

    125. You drive a rice burner because you ride a honda. (brand royality)

    126. You drive a Suzuki Sidekick because your bike is also a suzuki. Even though you know its a piece of crap (again, brand royalty)

    127. You drive a F150 with a Harley sign at the back.

    128. You wish there is a motorcycle robot in Transformer.

    129. You think Easy Rider is the best movie all time.

    not so

    Oh, I don't think you need a psychologist. It's the right palce to be in. Hours fly by when I am in the back. A 30min rip turns into a two hour adventure.

    Even blindfolded you know exactly when you are 500m away from the Humber River just by the smell.
