No Ride Weekend

Well the rain finally won.  It was aided and abetted by a sinus infection that wiped me out for the week.  The end result was no motorcycle ride which really depressed me.

            Because I was ill, we didn’t go out and look at new motorcycles at any dealerships on this rainy Saturday.  We did, however, check out videos on the brand new 2024 BMW R1300 GS, and I have to admit I’m surprised by how much I really like the look and features of this new version.  I have begun to hope that Bill decides to sell the Rocket—a dream bike, but one that is not always reliable—and return to riding the R Nine T.  That would mean I would have to return to riding the G310 GS which we have still not managed to sell despite all sorts of interest. 

            But I don’t think I would be riding my first motorcycle for long.  I have advanced my skills as a rider in the two and a half years of riding, and I think Bill likes me riding a more sophisticated bike.  So I will hold out some hope that instead of my dream R1250 GS, that one day I can upgrade to a beautiful green and gold R1300 GS—fingers crossed!
