Do you all ride your Legends all the time?

Ok... so my bike is a bit old... just like me.

But I plan to ride the hell out of my bike.

I was just wondering if there is any real reason that I shouldn't?

I ride all year round.

These bikes are made to be ridden. If you can handle it, the bike certainly can.

I think my wife is a legend and I ride her as often as I can (or rather, am allowed )
