I ride probably 8-10 hours a week just running errands and such (I work from home so no commute). Usually I'm on the Harley and often I pull the trailer for grocery shopping, Home Depot runs etc. About 2 hours of that on average are on the H2, even less time on the DT400. I break out the DT a couple of times a month for stop-sign wheelies and that's about it.

I truly hate riding on the street. But I always have an old faithful around for when I'm working on the car, or want to do a trackday when the 500 is apart. Also for the couple of times a year i go up the mountain to see my motorcycle friends. The 82 KZ 750 is just beat with a dead battery, and trashed tires, as I don't even want to work on it.

So the 250 is the new old faithful now..... :lol: Too nice to do trackdays.... for now....... :P

Sooooooooo, are we there yet?? 7 months to go right? A certain person, I won't mention his name, (Edgar who rides the girly bikes) was supposed to be posting weekly videos of this years Meet, but seems to have fallen off the wagon. :evil:

I took a Miata ride up there last Saturday with my wife and another couple. Absolutely gorgeous! 70 degrees, sunny, just nice. We are going back in three weeks when the colors should be magnificent. Can't wait for the meet next year to do it on the H1.
