It is one of the only way I get to connect with myself, go my own way and just be, well, alone. I've agreed to take the "Spot" satellite tracker (I've sort of agreed) with me so that it makes others feel okay. <BR/><BR/>For me, it's the thought of riding with others for extended periods of time that unnerves me! I must undergo tons of mental preparation to do that.<BR/><BR/>You might have to spend some extra time to talk yourself out of the nervousness given your witness to an accident. Probably just need more time. We don't want to ride with fears of any sort. Good luck!Sojourner's Moto Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235661849993752840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32557834.post-83029756405458630152009-03-15T18:46:00.000-05:002009-03-15T18:46:00.000-05:00Cute Red bike.

I also sat on the G650GS much more comfortable seat but it's single. I'm currently riding a VStrom 650. I have a question, in your last blog entry you mentioned you like to ride alone. Does the thought of riding alone bother you at all since the get off. The reason I ask is that my riding buddy had a get off about 6 weeks ago. Similar situation as yours I made the corner and he didn't. I haven't been back into the back country since, I've just done riding around town and commuting. I wonder if part of the reason is seeing what happened to him I'm nervous about riding alone.Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14209403969400881262noreply@blogger.com
