I have lots of dreams (usually in color) and have recently had some nice dreams of riding along a perfect motorcycle road. Nothing weird, just some nice riding (at least that's what I remember).

Anyone else have dreams of riding?

I have a dream that in 10 gays I'll be forced to get on my bike with as much stuff as I can carry & head for my new job & home in Oregon. That's 2800 miles on my fat, out of shape body. I need to leave early enough to have a chance to recouperate enough to make it to my first day of work on May 01. Hopefully my credit union loan will come through & I can pile everything, including my bike, on a Uhaul truck & drive there. I love to ride but living off what I can carry on da bike and destroying my butt & back before starting a new job is a nightmare.

Update: My loan came through & I'll be able to rent a truck, load the bike & all my stuff on also & drive the 2800 miles in a cage. Now if I could just get better than 10 mile per gallon.......... :bikes

In all seriousness, yes, I do. However mine are slightly weird. I'm sometimes on my GS, sometimes on an unspecific dirt bike (maybe it's my dear departed '73 Yammie TY-250). Thing is, I am unstoppable. I wheelie up flights of stairs, I ride up impossibly steep hillsides, and on and on. They are definitely FUN dreams, that much is for sure. They're the kind of dreams that feel very real, and I wake up disappointed to discover it was only a dream.

I dream of riding in Africa. No kidding 3-4 times each week. I guess I should stop reading the Touratech catalog before bed.

Okay, now I found myself daydreaming ... at work!

I was in a meeting :blah ... day dreaming about riding. Good thing I didn't get asked question or something. I had to give my head shake :rofl and concentrate about the work at hand. Must remember, work allows me to ride.

You've got me thinking with this one. I've had plenty of vivid dreams about my long ago dirt bike days. However the only road bike dream I can remember is riding no handed, something I've never done, even on a bicycle.
I've had one Technicolor dream in my life many years ago. I still remember the colors but not the dream, you are very lucky.

My moto dreams are usually redux of past riding adventures. Sometimes the places, events, bikes and riding companions get jumbled together, but they are all recognizable from my past. I guess I cannot imagine having more fun than I already have! As for the technical side, I always dream in color and sometimes I become aware that I am in a dream and begin to "consciously" effect the dream while I am in it.
I know, I am an odd duck, but that is not news, just ask anybody in my posse. :groovy

I curse my morals and ethics sometimes. I look outside and see a sunny, 20 plus degree day and wish I had the lack of ethics to call in sick so I can go riding. It doesn't help that I can look outside the repair shop window and see my bike sitting there wanting to be ridden. But I have to wait until 4:30. I could go for a quick ride at lunch but I wouldn't want to come back.
