Kind of cool where I work. We had about 10 bikes and they had us take a picture to put on our website and company magazine. There were 7 Harleys, a GSXR, and my Monster.

Mine was definitely the point of covnersation for everyone. waytogo

I rode two bikes to work today, so I guess technically that makes up for someone who couldn't or didn't.

M1000 in the morning, then I went home for lunch and came back on the S4R.

Rode in and rode to lunch. About to have to try and get home in one piece now...

You would think with a bright red bike and lid you wouldn't have to dodge every cager out there....

Heh, for a second I thought you were trying to be funny by saying the Gixxer wasn't a real motorcycle.

I was only one of three bikes today -- my M750, a FJR1300, and a Harley. (There were two scooters too.) On Fridays we can get as many as 10 bikes... kind of a pathetic turnout.

Didn't see one other bike on the road this morning. Kinda dissappointing.

I ended up riding to my coworker's house to carpool to the airport yesterday, so I did get to ride to work after all.

I was riding through the twisties at 3:30 am. I didn't see any other bikes out there either, shocking. cheeky

We recently moved to new office spaces. Now I need a key-card to access the parking structure. SO I fish my wallet out of my jacket pocket, activate the gate. Then it takes me a bit of time to get the wallet back into my pocket. As I ride through the gate comes down on my helmet bang head

. Need to come up with a better way to use the key-card

Clip it to your key ring that the bike key is on with one of those retractable string thingies. That always worked for me.

come on DBran, we are suppose to be cool Cool

, hope nobody was behind you to see. if no one sees you, then it never happened.
100 post! applause

I was riding to work today, like everybody should, I was a bit late, i cut off a first set of cagers at the light, then I did it again, and then again. splitting lanes or cutting my way to the front not only save on time, fun, thrilling, but more importantly addictive.. once you start you don't want to stop...

just keep that left thumb near the honker waytogo
