I’m able to ride to work three days this week. Lately it’s not been a matter of weather that’s led me to commute in my car, it’s been a matter of errands while at work that require a car as well as simply being too tired to ride. I tend to get up pretty early and sometimes I’m just not awake enough to ride safely.

That’s one of the biggest tenets of motorcycle riding … riding within your limits. It not only means staying within a reasonable speed for your skill level but also within your own physical and emotional limits. Don’t ride angry. Don’t ride tired. Don’t ride distracted.
