to change or not to change that is the question

[Water Warrior 2]

That is a possibility. However I only rode a half dozen times last year and there wasn't the same feeling of fun and enjoyment that I once had. I even had Lynda's bike out and it wasn't even all that great with a different bike.
I'm sure it has a lot to do with age and my vulnerability on 2 wheels when compared to the greater amount of protection a cage has to offer. I used to have fun challenging my skills on the bike in the twisties but the traffic and general braindead attitude of drivers and riders is getting a bit frightening to deal with.
