   Taking a break on top of Berthoud Pass

Only a biker knows why a dog sticks his head out the window. That's where this series of posts get their title. These are pithy, humorous, or otherwise interesting quotes I've picked up along the way. Here's the new batch:

• Ride as if your life depended on it!!
• Training, the best safety and performance "equipment" you can get!
• Most vehicles have one person in them. So if you have one person riding a 400-pound vehicle, and another person riding a 4,400-pound vehicle, why are you putting the restrictions on the motorcyclist? You should really be putting the restriction on the person driving the SUV. -- Jay Leno
• Practicing the dark and forgotten art of using turn signals since '88.
• The twisties - not the superslabs - separate the riders from the squids.
• There is no such thing as a bad day when riding a dirtbike.
• Patience is the ability to keep your motor idling.
• The road goes ever on and on, down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the road has gone and I must follow, if I can.
• Just ride the damned thing.
• I'd trade all my motorcycles for one flying dragon.
• Life is too short for bad rides.
• Practice wrenching on your own bike.
• You’re a lucky guy if your woman rides her own.
• The best modifications cannot be seen from the outside.
• Ride To Eat! Eat To Ride!
• When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
• The best alarm clock is sunshine on chrome.
• Everyone is trying to kill you. Really TRYING.
• My bike is beyond sexual... It is Viagra for the soul.
• I don't need a reason to ride . . . just a direction.

So this is the fourth installment. You can read them all here:
