Ken, Rode bikes for about 35 years myself,,, both on and off road. Surgery to my upper spine took the fun out of that hobby, but you're right. The SL is the closest thing I've found to the thrill of a bike. Actually I think it's better,,, no helmet, my wife beside me and able to talk back and forth, and any tunes you want to listen to.
