Hello forum writers, I thought I keep talking about you, about me, about what is happening around us, here, in this virtual bar. I really like the name: "The Tavern" "
Good choice.
So, from what I understand now everyone is trying to live day by day. Considering that we are now 2014 this makes me sad.
When I was a child and I read comics, I imagined the future, the year 2000, as full of well-being and safety.
We went over but the world seems crazy. There is no one thing that works.
Incredible.
Fortunately, thanks to the forum is possible to smile all together.
Glad you wandered in, BigBear! Sit down and let me buy you a drink. What's your commute like through the streets of Rome? Mine is fairly long at 29mi/47km each way, and it takes about an hour and a half through rush hour traffic, but a little less than an hour when I'm riding through the dead of night. I'm enjoying the cooler weather too. Most of the time it's blazing hot in the daytime traffic and hot and muggy even at night.

Well, every day I use the scooter to go to work. I Work in the center of Rome near the Basilica of St. Peter. But I live outside of Rome, in an area of rolling hills, green, and air ... better!+
To make my journey sometimes is necessary 2 hours time (during the day) but I almost always I work at night and in 1 hour I arrive there.
Then I use the scooter for pleasure trips with my wife or with my 9 year old son.
My son is the co-pilot for the control of the sandwiches and soft drinks!!
Cheers BigBear! I'll drink to that!! Riding offers a bit of sanity, especially when you can ride with no traffic around, it's rather serene.
Ride safe!
Wes, we're are more fortunate than many because we can ride with no traffic within a few minutes of where we live (or the end of my driveway for me). I rode 40+ miles a few weeks ago and never saw another moving vehicle of any kind.
Since the weather forecast is good, I plan on riding to your city tomorrow to pick up a gift certificate from the Chop House for my daughter and son-in-law.
Osbornk, you are so correct, it is nice to ride those tranquil places and fortunately it doesn't take too long to get there. I hope you made it to the Chop House and back without incident. Fridays in that area can have a fair amount of traffic, especially this time of year.
I used to live between Baltimore and Washington D.C. and have been in TN for 12 years, so I really appreciate the lack of traffic congestion here.
Ride safe!
Had a very nice ride and the food at the Chop House was great. A little more expensive than most of the places around here but worth every penny.
