The Gym and Motorcycles...

[penst8grad]

Interesting name (Northumberland) since I live in Northumberland, Pa.

Holy $hit! I knew you lived close, but not that close. I'm in Watsontown. Small world.

Anyway since we're posting pics:



I'm on it most days that it isn't raining and/or above 40. I guess I ride to the gym since it's at my house.

Cool thread. Nice bikes in here. I got a small street/trail bike I share with my sons.

Cool...... I used to live even closer in Elimsport.

I ride regular on the 1975 FLH that I've owned for 28 years. To and from the gym sometimes but not often.
In Arizona we ride 12 months of the year.

SR800,

That's a DRZ 400 right? How do you like it? I've got a straight dirt DRZ250. It's could use a little more power. Is the 400 fast enough to keep up on the street with traffic. I am looking for a dual sport or motard.

I ride. Since I was 13. see avatar ....Never really a problem although I don't work out on mornings of all day rides just cuz of the fatigue factor. All day in the saddle is more fun when you're not tightening up from doms. LOL

Hey, lewddog, is that a Big Bear Chop you got?

just cuz you work out doesn't mean you don't do anything else. Got to get out there and grab life. Play some sports, ride across country, chase some women, etc.

[rotlex]

Couldn't resist - just got home and wanted to post two pics of my 2nd pride and joy. (The first being may daughter of course)!

would that be a pan bottom end? it is great to see shovelheads still rolling.

[ShadowRydr]

I ride. Just had to order a new battery though. Even though I had it on the tender over the winter; it croaked. So I'm down another week or so until it arrives.

[bbbom]

1985 Magna VF700C here, daily commuter when possible, hopefully that'll be in the next few days. Don't take it to the gym though because I just picked up a smoking set of Olympic Weights, dumbells, bench, racks, etc. from a guy that was getting out of lifing so the kid and I get to lift at home now!

I don't have any pics of the Magna.

My favorite bike though is my dirtbike - 94CR500. Just got back from Moab and "5 Miles of Hell" early last week and won the local Spring MudFling Harescramble in the Ironwoman's Class the weekend before. My son (14 yo) and daughter (12 yo) race & ride also, that's why my son has started to lift - to get in shape for MX and trails.

I posted a story about the Moab trip in the Female BB forum (kinda fun).

I live near Pittsburgh

Man, I'm feeling a little out of place given that most of the guys posting in this over age 35 section ride cruisers and I ride a sport bike, even worse, a Duc. Anyone else like going to the track?

[freewheel]

1999 Harley FXDX
1942 Harley Flathead
Riding is the only thing I have been doing longer than working out.....Started when I was 15. Got my first Harley when I was 17. It was a 1938 Flathead.

cool reg plate i used to have a KMX moto cross i got rid though. Wouldnt have another bike.

[Capt. America]

Been riddin' jap bikes since 1973, at age 50 I bought my first Harley...a 98 Sporty, I try to ride everyday as long as it ain't snowin' or rainin'. We get some screwy weather here in Pittsburgh, 78 one day, snow the next. My next bike will be a Ural with a side car so I can ride in the snow! I used to take my Honda CB -900 to the gym and after doing legs it was a bitch, I only weighed 165 at the time and she seemed like a monster.

Tracks are OK, but don't you carve canyons? A guy from another site used to send me pics of riding them in the winter while I was snowbound.

I prefer twisty mountain roads to track.

Here's a picture of my Roadstar custom with me and the wife from last summer. This is my 22nd motorcycle.

I was out in the canyons down in San Diego (east county) last Sunday, but despite the twisties, it doesn't compare to a track IMO. On a track, everyone's going the same way, 160 MPH is not scary, there are no cops, no animals, and most importantly, no one on their cell phone going the opposite direction crossing over double yellows.

Oh, and looking sexy isn't limited to being on a stage:

Nice. I have the same helmet too. Your pics make me miss my 04 Gixxer 600.

[Northumberland]

wow,
Didn't expect this much response from the question!
Now all I gotta' do is get as big as this guy...

N.

[LogPressing]

I ride a 2005 VTX 1300C. I used to ride a sportster back when I was 30, sold it and didn't get another one until Jan 2006. I just need to ride it more, I think I have 1700 miles still on it.

[Brettsky]

I have a '77 Sportster, just had the motor and tranny rebuilt, and the bike repainted, am in the process of putting new chrome on. Love to ride!

[nomasgordo]

actually after the gym i get a rush riding my bike.... oh wait, that happens everytime I ride I built this myself in 2005:

[9-1-1 Dave]

Yeah baby! 2001 FLHT riding in da wind!!

[bennweb]

My bike was my motivation to lose weight.
Once I hit my goal, I ran out and bought my DL650. It's nice to see a group of riders who take care of their bodies as well as their bikes. Most riders I see are in desperate need to log onto this site.

haha, too funny! i used to be one of them! my bike is a softail, and i had to crank the suspension down as tight as I could and still seemed like it could bottom out if i hit a big bump. I almost felt bad for the poor bike. Now its liking me alot more tho
