Warning! You may be suffering from Parked Motorcycle Syndrome - sometimes known as "PMS".
Symptoms may include:
1) Writing three consecutive blogs about "PMS" and potential cures (CWN blogger Denise Maple). See Parts One , Deux , and III with cures that include a great coupon offer for Motorcycle Trade Shows, and yes, Pole Dancing.
2) Dudes can get PMS too and may display strange behaviors like Saying Prayers for Deceased Beer Fridges or Googling themselves 3 times a day (Daniel Peirce).
3) Intermittent PMS - According to Carla King this version of the dreaded malady strikes Californian's.
Read on for more tell-tale signs of PMS and potential cures...
More Symptoms:
Some of us insist on riding no matter what - and join the Sisterhood of the Silly Pants. And then there are some CWN members who actually take a spin in the snow (we're not saying we recommend it!).
Here are a few additional signs of Parked Motorcycle Syndrome:
You may have "PMS" if....
You find yourself sitting on your running clothes dryer for no apparent reason
You go skiing and make "VRRR-rrr-oooom" noises while descending the hill
You take your kid to the local Chucky Cheese so you can get on the motorcycle arcade ride
You wear your helmet while driving in your "cage" with the windows rolled down
You've watched American Chopper re-runs so many times you have Senior's rants memorized
Some Cures:
Well, sorry, no disrespect intended to Denise Maple, but there are no true cures. You can mitigate the pain though. We're all in this together. A motorcycle Trade Show (suggested by Denise and Carla King) certainly can't hurt.
May we also suggest you try making some new friends here at CycleWorldNetwork? Invite one of your riding buds to stop in for a spin.
Dig up some pics from that sweet ride you took this past summer and share your Great Rides story with us.
Hang in there. Ground Hog day is just round the bend.
