Default Hello
I just bought a C50 had not ridden in about 25 years. I think it is a great bike I ride it to work every day I can and it is a 90 mile round trip. I was a little tense on it for a while but as I got into riding again it is a lot of fun handles great.

I did a 108 mile round trip for three years. Riding my bike is the only thing that realy made it tollerable. Well, that and almost the entire was was realy fun back roads. Oh, and when I was not on my bike I was in a sports car. Mostly on my bike though.

What kind of driving is it? Mostly city or country? Highway or stop-and-go?
