On the Fast Lane – 300 Miles to The Green Mountains

Long break from my riding days, I thought I have lost it totally, started looking at safe seven passenger SUVs and narrowed down to a few. Believe me somethings are coded inside and won’t change just because you grow old and feel responsible.

I got my latest ride last month a Kawasaki Z1000 one of the most powerful naked street sport motorcycle available in the maket today. 4 Cylinder 16 Valves 1043 CC lets you unleash the 140 horses and what this power delivery does is pack a wide grin on the face of the lucky guy siting on the front seat and twisting the throttle.

Having just under 850 miles on the odometer I am still breaking-in the steed and yesterday let loose the fury of power on the 7 North. It was a glorious day to be riding and thought I would head up North as long as possible. Gassed up and checked the tire pressure and chain tension and started riding North. The motorcycle is wicked in its acceleration, braking and even the suspension eats through the curves and at ease in the straight lines.

At this pace I thought I could hit the Canadian boader and come back home but as I was riding through The Green Mountain National Forest in Vermont the scenery slowed me down. I stopped here and there to enjoy the sights and called it a day.

That morning I thought about taking the car out but I made a right decision to wear the riding gear instead of idling inside a metal shell and din't regret a second of it. To sum it all up 3 States (Connecticut, Massachusetts & Vermont), 300 miles, great roads, infinitely beautiful scenery and 7 hours on a great motorcycle. Ride Well My Friends.
