Nice when you get a chance to break from riding to and from work, that dulls the senses a bit. You need a good run every now and then as much as the bike.

Only the last bit of road home was fast riding so that probably helped with the milage. Yep, good ride-out is always nice. Next time though i think ill take the pillow from the bed for under my ass.
