I find it odd you would use strange as an adjective.

Take a look at the Can-Am Spyder. I kept my Monster S2R 1000 for me and ride the
spyder with the wife. This thing is as safe as your car or truck. Stability control, ant-lock brakes all computer controlled. Maby your wife would ok this type of ride?  [moto]

Thanks for the tip, but there is more to it than the safety concerns.  Family time is the driving factor, so even the Spyder wouldn't fit the bill.

Totally understandable, I don't think you need to look at it as your last ride. I'm sure when you are older, daughters are all grown up, and maybe reitred, there will be another moto in your life. And by then they'll all have 600hp solar/feces hybrid engines and all gear will have force fields and you'll shit your pants (hence the hybrid) when you ride one for the first time.

Well, Jeremy that makes my leaving just a bit easier!  Knowing that I couldn't ride with you anymore even if I stayed comforts me a bit, I dont know why.  I made the same promise to my ex-wife (and no, that is not the reason she is an ex!), and she relented 10 years later after seeing how I would still look at any montorcycle that rides by.  Take care brother!

at the fork in the road

















turn towards the family.

Very Admirable decision.

Hope you stick around.

If you don't hope all is well with you and your family in the years (many) to come

Oddly enough, I feel the same way.  Thank you for the kind words my friend.  I'd still like to get together before you leave if we can work it out. waytogo

You scared the f'ing snot out of me J!!  I thought this was a RIP message from your bride like the one we got a year or two ago from Sean's.  Im gonna kick your ass for the title.   Angry


As for the reason, my hat is off to you with much respect.  You are a good man!  (so....lets talk about that mini van you will be selling)

Back off, DDGM!  I am first in line for the V-Strom.  See, I even address it with the respect it deserves.  You've done nothing but ridicule the dirty truckster since he got it! 

But I'm wit ya on the way he broke the news to us.  My computer took five long, long minutes to pull that link up, and a thousand scenarios, none of them good, ran through my mind.  I was white as a sheet when it finally materialized.  I was so relieved I was almost delirious that he was only retiring from the ride for awhile or forever, who even cared at that point.  Talk about drama!!!  Geez Jeremy!  You ARE gettin' your ass kicked the next time you're down in the hood.  I expressed the rest of my sentiments on the NMMR thread so will restrain myself.  Okay, maybe just one little picture:



THE REAL REASON JEREMY IS GIVING IT UP!   laughingdp laughingdp laughingdp
