Getting Old?

[swhite at consultant.com]

 *Hand waving*

I got pulled over for having a loud exhaust a month or two back, and haven't fixed it yet, so I'm not technically riding it, but still...  Not that I'd done any long rides in the past year, as between having a girlfriend I only get to see weekends (logistics-grrr!), and just not feeling the need to do any marathons for quite a while, commuting was all the riding I did.  Probably just as well, as after my marriage boke down I'd spend most of the weekend riding, and was averaging ~ 6-800km's per weekend on top of the usual 350k's of commuting.  I'm now working in the CBD though, so catching a train off-peak (due to my shifts) has been quite relaxing.

Starting to miss riding, though.  Might have to replace the leaky shift shaft seal and get the old girl back on the road, now the weather's cooling down to tolerable levels.

I still have my fast black '96 and ride it often, although it has been sharing serious time with the '80 CB-X for the last two years since I got the latter running well. 
 
All those who actually still have a GPz on the GPz list raise your e-hand!

Yes, the List has seen better days, but some of us are still out here.  I still ride my GPz, only not as much<...>
