[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 395412, member: 13921"] I bought a motorcycle for my 20 mile per day commute. I don't know that I am saving any money though. The always, lovely Bon Bon and I go out to breakfast on the weekends, usually at least an hour away. Did not do that with the pickup. I have taken my daughter a few places also. We usually take a circuitous route that ends when the always lovely Bon Bon calls to ask, "what the heck is taking so long, I thought you were going....." We ride ATGATT (all the gear, all the time) and I do believe that my UPS driver training, plus off road racing, have saved me from several crashes. Lots of drivers, do not see motorcycles........ One of the other drivers was riding a bicycle, but gave it up Labor Day weekend. I thought about it, alot. I still ride my bike, but it is not very comfortable for long rides. Looked at a recumbant, which is very, very tempting. In the end, the motorcycle is more fun. "Here, hold this, I'll show you how to pop a wheelie." TB safety 3rd [/QUOTE]
