I agree completely, spending time with the family comes first. When I ride, its to work during the week and early in the mornings Sat/Sun. I try to leave around 7am and get back by noon. The girls are usually just getting "up" at that point.

I do miss my R11s. I sold it to TJS here. It was a weak moment, as I had only recently put Ohlins on the bike.
