Motorcycling

This time, it's for real

Ok, no more kidding around. The more stable job pushed me to do the big step: I gave in and got myself a nice toy.

My brand new Z1000

It's nice enough for my little commute—10 miles from door to door—but it really becomes as good as it gets on the windy back roads of the Bay Area.

For the record, last weekend, I rode with my friend Sid, and at some point we switched so that he could try my bike. He rides a Suzuki SV1000S. Well, ten miles on another bike don't lie: I prefer mine :-D

I couldn't resist :-P

That's it, after months of waiting and dreaming and resisting, I gave up. There are times when one man's got to do what he got to do. Steph will now ride the little Ninja—which is incidentally perfectly sized for her—and I will ride my brand new BMW R1100S!

Of course, I chose it red, to go along with my riding suit…

The little green buddy

I was looking back at the october blog entries and I realized that I never got to show a picture of the little Ninja. Unfortunately, a quick search did not let me find it in the same color as I have (the all time famous Kawasaki green), but here's the yellow twin to my buddy, as found on the Kawasaki web site.
