Today my wife and I took a ride from Vegas to Zion NP and back, we covered about 350 miles. We didn't have time to ride through the park because she had to be back for some work "responsibilities"..... but we did have a great time!
The day was great!! Low 80's by the time we got to Zion and the temp never went over 95 the whole trip. But the thing that I am having trouble with is that I just didn't want to stop! My wife is a trooper, she does not "love" riding as much as I do but she likes to go out every once and a while with me. This is probably our longest ride to date together. By the time we got home she was ready to get off and stay off. Me on the other hand, I was ready to saddle back up and hit the road again!! I have been riding for over 18 years and it just gets better and better for me. I have always enjoyed short trips on my other bikes but it just seems different now. I find any excuse to ride that I can. Short trips, long trips, whatever!! But whenever I pull into the garage I always feel like I didn't go far enough. I think I am getting a little obsessed!!
I am in the process of planning my first SS1K and at the same time figuring out how to complete the BB1500... I feel like I'm on a never ending quest....
So is it ever enough for you guys? If not, why not? I guess I'm just looking for a little confirmation that I am not slowly going FJR crazy or that if I am, that I'm not the only one..... :crazy:
