Seems like a slow riding summer--no bikes?

[DynoTune]

Is it me or is motorcycle riding low this year? I hardly see any bikes on the road. I use to see a ton of them.... this year, I do not even see to many harleys. Maybe the ecomomy folks are moth balling for the year?

Does not seem to be as many group rides this year either...

Seems normal.

I haven't noticed any shortage of bikes on the road. In fact, we've got more people than ever riding to work at my company.

Try going up to laconia today and tell me there aren't many Harleys out.

I see bikes out all over the place. I actually think I have seen more this season that prior seasons.

Ditto on the scooters...
rant on:
I seen a couple scooters that cant be unseen, these tools had 6.5" speakers on their scooters at bike night. There really should be a cc requirement for bike night, i mean seriously if i was the person at the entrance waving people in and a moped came up to me blaring dmx, i would point him twords the water.

I've seen a lot more bikes and scooters on the roads lately.

Ive noticed a lot more bikes this year. Two new riders in my small neighboorhood. It is a little funny to watch one of them "practice" around the block.

lower gas prices + unemployment = people selling bikes

Maybe its just me...

The scooters activity is off the charts up on the North Shore. I think people are getting scooters to beat the increasingly crushing gridlock around here. In Salem, it's not a bad way to get around. Better than a car, for sure.

I see no shortage of bikes on 128 every morning, either.

[toocrazy2yoo]

Man, bikes been shriekin' up and down Rt22, Essex road, redlining those thangs all night since 6. The North Shore contingent must be up and out tonight..

No, same here. I haven't seen as many either. We use to have quiet a few bikes ridden to my work. They even built a designated spot for them so they would be protected. Over the past year or two that number has decreased that only 1 or 2 bikes ride in now. If I'm out tooling around I barely pass any. But obviously that is not the case for everyone.

[butcher bergs]

No shortage of tank tops and flip flops over here.

[DynoTune]

I agree, when I go out riding, i dont even see any sport bikes....... its wierd... I use to hear them bomb up and down my street regularly....now its rare.... must be metro west...
