Did you know today was National Ride to Work Day? Yep. There is an organization out there that encourages people to ride motorcycles and scooters.
Of course, if I was going to ride a motorcycle to work, it would have to be my all-time favorite bike - The V-Max 
I remember when this bike was released back in 2005. It had 145hp - more than a lot of cars. I think I read that the new one to be released in 2009 (pictured here) will have 200 hp.
The need for speed - the V-Max certainly fits the bill
(Somehow, I don’t think they had this bike in mind for National Ride to Work Day.)

Gah!
(Well, okay. There is a motorcycle in my stable. But still.)
What’s wrong with the V-Max?
Nothing’s wrong with a V-Max*, I’m just busy pushing my purity agenda. Bike to Work!
*tho’ if I were picking out a bike for free, I’d probably settle on this one.
That sucker is HUGE!
Vivian–if you quit smoking and promise to wear a helmet, I’ll get them to let you ride a motorcycle between homes the next time you go canvassing; biking > smoking.
Is there a cup-holder on that bad-boy for my beer?
Hey - I always wear a helmet, and not the “brain-bucket” kind, either. Of course, one thing you pretty much can’t do is ride a motorcycle and smoke. At least I haven’t figured out how
No one needs a cup-holder on a bike, although I’m sure some of them come with it. I haven’t ridden much in the last few years (except occasionally riding my scooter around the yard), but I did ride a friend’s bike on July 4th. Fun
Well, come on then, what do you ride?
I only have a little Honda scooter that I ride around the backyard these days - and then only rarely. I haven’t owned a bike in a number of years - last one being a Yamaha 400.
What do you have in your stable, MB?
One of these (mine’s red). Inherited it from a friend who moved overseas. Kinda small for me, but hey, when it’s free . . .
I just got back from the local moto shop and saw one of these. Very nice.
Too funny. That is almost the exact same bike I had
And my partner & I had a matching pair - one red, one black 
The Vmax has been in production since 1985 and has 135 hp. The Vmax in the picture is a new design for 2009 (200 hp) and has not been released yet.
