Run in with a Prancing Horse

This morning I decided to ride my CBR to work. It wasn't a very nice day outside, but I haven't been on my bike for a week. I merged onto the highway and noticed very light traffic, sweet. I was coming over a large highway bridge and noticed some unique tail lights in the distance. Curious, I dropped a gear and headed hard for this mystery car.

As I come up hard on the car I notice it's a 2002 ish 575M, fucken eh! I pull beside a guy in his mid thirtees and we both exchange thumbs up. Hoping that he might be thinking the same as me I drop into 4th and pin it. Sure enough he does the same. Traffic is light but not light enough to really get on it.

We continue pacing each other on the highway, I drop in behind him to hear both our exhausts humming away. Traffic clears up and we both get on it, no distance is gained or lost by either before I know it I'm in 6th at 240km/h.
This continues on most of my way into work, just a great way to start the day. I'm happy I took my bike to work today
