If I thought like that, I wouldn't ride my bike at all.

People with sportbikes can talk gear all day long. It's a never ending debate. I have top quality gear. But if there's times where im not comfortable in it then I'm not going to be comfortable riding in it either. Therefore, I cannot enjoy myself.

Weird how you never hear these gear debates on cruiser forums

A lot of people feel that way. I have been down without gear (hit and run) and it's not worth it to me.

Congrats on the new play toy. There are a few nice roads off 199 in Williamsburg in the direction of the KOA campsites.

+1 to getting gear and try the MSF course if you haven't already.

Only issue I have with the Colonial Parkway is the open joints. Dropped the front tire of the 500 into one and it took me for a nice ride...
