I have marvelled by reading Nebill's posts about commuting. Nebill gives wonderful detail on how he gets on his bike and turns a seven mile commute into a 27 mile commute just for fun.

Man! Somethimes he goes for a spin on his bike and it turns into a 40+ mile "three-hour-tour".

Well, just this morning, I was commuting to work when a Harley Davidson thundered up next to me as I waited at a stop sign. I looked over and to my great surprise and delight, it appeared to be NEBILL!!! Yes, OUR Nebill from BikeForums.com. I recognized him from his avatar under his name.

I looked at him and shouted "Nebill, Nebill!! Where is your bicycle, Nebill?!!" He looked at me strangely and then started to speed off. I peddled furiously to catch up with him, but he was too fast on that Harley.

However, I did catch up with him at the next light. Barely able to catch my breath, I gasped out, "Nebill, Nebill, what's the rush? Where are you going?" Nebill looked at me in a "don't touch me" kind of way, and said, "I'm headed to work, Pal" as if to mean something else.

Then he roared off again. I sped after him unsuccessfully. Finally, a big orange Schneider Trucking semi pulled between us and I realized it was futile to try to catch him.

"What a strange meeting", I thought. I thought Nebill would have been a lot happier to meet someone from the forums. Then I realized that I HAD NOT INTRODUCED MYSELF as "Mike" from bikeforums.com and I didn't have a bikeforums.com jersey or T-shirt on either. He must have thought I was just some kind of nut. It suddenly occurred to me how funny it must have been and I fell right down onto the curb with my feet still strapped into the toe clips and laughed like like like nuts!

Another thought then struck my brain. Nebill was a LONG way from home. In fact, he must have been about 2,000 miles away from home.

What the hey... And it all became clear. Nebill obviously thinks this is a Motorcycle forum! That clearly accounts for the enormous miles he is reporting. I wouldn't be surprised if we soon find a post from him claiming his first 2,000 mile commute.

So, Nebill, if you are reading this, let me say It was ME who was chasing you on your Harley Davidson motorcycle. Yes, I was the crazy bicyclist! . Oh ya, I hope you think it was funny now as I did then.

Also, Nebill, this is a bicycle forum, not a motorcycle forum. We love you and your colorful posts, but from now on, try bicycling and posting the posts of your Bicycle commutes. Maybe you will only cover say 7 to 10 miles, but you will see a lot of stuff and you will meet other bikers who might recognize you as Nebill from bikeforums.com
