Maiden voyage on the R1.....

*sigh*

So we got the R1 tagged, etc.... last night (woot), replaced the headlights with silver satr bulbs, and I finally got to ride her today. Holy cow.... Even just on my quick little 12.5 mile commute to work (primarily on the highway) it was just sheer joy. Just an amazingly nimble, light and RESPONSIVE machine. Comfortable, fits me well, responds to my every whim or wish... just a blast. I can't wait to get out on a longer ride Thursday night (and I've also got a couple longer adventures planned with her both Saturday and Sunday).

Those short 12.5 miles this morning confirmed -- I chose correctly. This is without a doubt the bike for me.

*swoon*
