If youre feeling up for a more rural cruise, theres endless miles of traffic-free windy roads in my area. Better than congested Seattle streets IMO.

That's why I was looking at mercer island.... it seems to be a loop that doesn't have alot of lights and I think it's 35 mph.

Same thing with seattle. It's like 25-35 and if we pick a decent day traffic won't be too bad, but lots more stops and lights.

I like to ride slow and enjoy my coffee haha, randomly throttling up to pass cars or perform reckless maneuvers.

I like the high speed twisties on back roads. That way I can pretend Im on something actually fast....just pretend. Id say 90% of the fuel in my tank is spent at WOT.

Oh same here. I use the throttle like it's an on/off switch, except I'm usually revving it up to make noise or do burn outs... 99% of my gas goes to revving it up at cars and passersby and burn outs. I love blasting thru town choosing whatever route seems fit...bike trails, sidewalks, parking lots, etc.
