    Have any of you had to ride your bike to the parts store?

    For the first time in my life I just had to ride my mountain bike to the parts store. It was not a big deal because it is only a few miles away and I ride for exercise any way. But I cannot help but see the irony in it. I hate only having one vehicle running right now.

    That is what I was thinking. If we lived where I wanted us to live, I could not have done it. Well, I could but I would have had to pack a lunch, planty of water, and maybe a tent.

    Normally I would have my motorcycle to fall back on. That is my daily rider. But sense I returned home we cannot afford to get it legal. At least I enjoy riding my mountain bike.

    The last time I had to drop my truck off at the shop I ran home, but I run nearly every day so I just switched my workout to the morning and ran the long way back (because the shop is only 5 miles away).

    Three wheeler guys probably have the biggest balls out of all the ATV/Motorcycle riders. You just have to be a little twisted to ride them, and you have to be a great rider to do so.

    If I had rode an ATV I sure I would not have had it to ride back.
