We’re back in Katy now, the cars were driven home last night – we woke up early and drove back to College Station to pickup our motorcycles (my SV650S and my Dad’s Goldwing.) Instead of taking the typical Hwy 6 to 290 to 359 to I-10 route back from College Station – we went all crazy through the backroads. The backroads were much more fun, and twisty. Everyone knows twist + motorcycle = fun. About 3/4 through the trip (and sadly after all the twisty fun) I found the optimal riding position. For the majority of my riding I’ve been sitting too far back in the saddle – wreaking havoc on my thumbs, not so much my wrists, but my thumbs. Anyway, further up on the tank, and the riding position is more kind to my hands, better throttle control, and it handles better in deep leans. That is all for now. I love my bike.
