swft... until we have enough members participating in the touring section to justify splitting it into sport touring and cruiser etc etc we need to leave it like this and let it grow a bit...

artists SOoo sensittive about thier stuff.
Though I gotta agree. "Touring Zone" sounds like a bit of a poof area. I picture gold wings with annoying string lights on them and thick sheep skin pads on all them corbin saddles.

I thought that was reserved for the Hells Angles Lets-dillude-the-public-into-thinking-we're-law-abiding-citizens Toy Run.
Is that sport touring?

I went touring on my 10 the other day,It was such a nice day to get out and play.On a bright forestry highway, cool wind in my hair(what I have left)off in the distance I saw a shimmering light(the sun going down)......blah blah blah...
I thought I could do this tour stuff.I bought a tank bag and everything........It even has a place for a map.How the heck do you look at a map running 142 ? Im just not a tour guy yet I guess

Thought I was reading the lyrics to 'Hotel California' for a second...
On a dark desert highway (only place you can ride with no hassles)
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light (that would be the oncoming train)
My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night (I had to pee, too)
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell (Embassy Suites / Super 8)
Then she lit up a candle (Then why does it 'burn down'??)
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California (That'll be 40% of your options, please)
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place (background)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year
Any time of year (background)
You can find it here
You can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany twisted
She's got the Mercedes bends (Driving While Asian!)
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard (HarryZX12?)
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain (And Tennile!)
Please bring me my wine
He said
We haven't had that spirit here since 1969
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night (That, and the tacos you had)
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely Place
Such a lovely Place (background)
Such a lovely face
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
What a nice surprise (background)
Bring your alibies
Mirrors on the ceiling (Harry?)
Pink champagne on ice
And she said
We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device (Yah, I've seen some of those 'devices'!!)
And in the master's chambers (Matt Sterbator?)
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast (ZX10-R rules!)
Last thing I remember
I was running for the door (You can run, but you can't hide!)
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before (back passage?)
Relax said the nightman
We are programed to recieve
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave

I define it as ANY motorcycle on ANY ride with no SET destination, stop point, stop time, or route.
