You tighten the chin strap,
turn the key, hit the button and
the engine snaps to attention
like a West Point cadet. You
ease the big bike out of the
dark garage into the too bright
Northern California sunshine.
The Ninja® idles its way
through the early morning
traffic as you get reacquainted
after the week’s layoff. The
last sleepy faced driver grows
small in your mirrors, then
disappears as the road opens
up and snakes out ahead.
As the twists and bends
come closer together, so do
you and the machine. You can
sense the engineering at work,
but feel it only as smooth,
balanced performance. Each
twist of the throttle reels in the
next comer, each squeeze of
the brakes sets you up for the
next quick shift.
A sweeping left, a little jog
to the right and you pull into
the carnival that is an Alice’s
Sunday morning. Time to eat
and stretch and talk about how
good it was and how great it’s
gonna be. The bike ticks a
little as it begins to cool off.
You don’t tick, but you could
stand to cool down a little
yourself.
Some days, life is truly good.
Other days, it’s even better.
