Hi Chris!
I really appreciated your message, which is quite unusual for this Hi@Tech list.
Sorry guys: I think that many of you are really great in understanding how
this bike works; perhaps some of you knows much more than Honda engineers
do, but sometimes a bit of Bike Romance is welcome!
I ride too all the year long to go to work (well, I live in Italy: the
weather is better and the winter is shorter...).
I've always thought that if you really like riding (no matter the bike), you
have to do it, no matter how awful weather is.
I like riding in any condition particularly for the feelings I can get
particularly from the environment, I mean smell, sounds, sights, and so on.
>the fair-weather bikers & the plastic crotch-rocket brigade
You know, anyone has his/her style and de gustibus non est disputandum.
IMHO, they are pretty far from biking...
It's the same with some HD and custom riders, who avoid winter and rain
riding 'cause they are afraid of damaging polishing.... no comment...
Perhaps they think we are crazy riding on a foggy day. I simply love riding
and love is not seasonal.....
Thx again for your message
Lorenzo
