    Discovery

    I've been riding my bike every day since school started in August. Rain or shine I don't drive anything else. I discovered the other day that my car driving skills have gone to ****. While driving SWMBO's jeep. For some reason I can't keep the damn thing in the center anymore. and Counter steering is bad......very bad.

      I noticed the same thing when i got back in my truck to head home after 3500 miles in WA. I tried to lean to help the truck turn more than once!

          I also feel silly waving to motorcyclest when driving my cage. Riding habits are hard to break. The other day I was riding my Special and a stranger in a pickup waved. I figured he had just gotten back from a bike trip.

              My wife was laughing at me the other day when I waved to a biker while driving the car. I always have that urge to wave when driving my car. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one .

                      Wow, glad that I am not the only one that has waved, and probably had some biker think that I am trying to pick up on him!

                      Almost had a wreck in my Ranger when I had to do an emergency stop the other day in the rain! Not quite the stoping power that I remembered!
