My 2020 DCT Tour is my commuter daily to work. It makes me wake up and smile, every morning. The best machine on 2 wheels in 35 years of riding. Just an incredible machine to own. Zero regrets.
Wow! Love the enthusiasm about the 2020 DCT. It is a awesome machine. This stuff is inspirational. If I do get this job I am going to make inspirational videos on the ride home on the days that I ride. My only regrets was not having the 2021 with the bigger trunk. Yeah the wing is the best.
I commute maybe 3 days a week. I have a very standard work schedule (5 days a week, 7-4). If weather looks good, I prefer to ride the bike. It’s a short (15 minute) commute. Be safe Rich! Thank you for the great content!
Never say never... I was certain I would never ever buy an adventure bike. So... this week I bought a BMW GS 😊. On the subject: I returned to riding about 3 years ago, after a very, very long absence. I decided, in order to gain experience quickly, I would commute each day except for icy conditions (where I live we do have mild winters). I work in a warehouse from 04:30 till about noon and I am 71. Just to set the scene. Nowadays I really hate it when I have to take the car to work. I have good gear, rain does not bother me. I have a number of bikes, the daily rider is a BMW RT. Like the Gold Wing very good weather protection, heated grips, etc. Like you I ride often yet very, very seldom long distances. My commute is about 30 minutes one way. I have only 1 advice: do it. I always look forward to my ride home and sometimes take a bit of a detour, just for fun!
Absolutely awesome stuff. You’re the owner of two great bikes. Love the encouragement and I hope to enjoy it as much as you do. Thanks for commenting and watching. Ride safe.
Real Riders Ride. Love it man. I just read the most interesting thing on darksiding. Trust me my friend, I am not a hater. The article supports it. Thanks for chiming in and ride safe.
I ride a 2018 Honda Goldwing almost 365 day a year in North Carolina, if it rain I pull over and put my rain suit on and keep it moving. The only thing that will stop me from riding, is if there is "ice" on the road. DOMV Department of motor vehicles keep the road clear, so I don't have a problem riding.
I’m sure many folks do it and enjoy it. The weather app is going to be my best friend. I would avoid the rain going in but coming home won’t be a problem. Thanks for watching. Ride safe.
Please don't let other people's opinion determine what you do. Some people think they are experts on riding, and they want you to be like them. YOUR BIKE, YOUR MOTIVE!

@@richthereturnrider6737 Hold for the anniversary addition, next year. Honda should make it very interesting.
@@alp3781 We will see.
I wish I could commute on my bike but I can't with my job. However, I try to ride it exclusively on the weekends if I can. Ride safe!
We get out for throttle therapy when we can. It doesn’t matter when or how as long as we enjoy it when we do. You Ride Safe my friend.
Hey! Which of your bikes you ride most?
@@richthereturnrider6737 definitely the Goldwing
I commute on my Road King. 36 miles each way. 24 of that is interstate highway through the city. I wish more people would ride their bikes to work.
Nice. That’s encouraging. I wish the same and thanks for commenting and watching.
Rich, if I started riding the SS Goldwing to work, I might not stop at work and just keep on riding on into the sunset😊
LOL!
Yeah! I like that idea.
We will call this throttle therapy after 12 hours shift.
Heck yeah.

Thanks Robert. My schedule would be 3 days 12hour shifts. I wish it was only 15 minutes but not so lucky. We will see. Thanks for watching. Ride safe.

My 2010 Wing has been a commuter since new. It does have 44 states and 7 Canadian Provinces under its darksided wheels too..

Thanks for that. Words of wisdom. Thanks for commenting and watching.
12hrs. I wouldn't ride after that, especially if I'm fatigued. Weekend warrior...I take others' opinions with a grain of salt.
Yeah. Will see what it feels like after the first couple of shifts. Weekend warrior. Thanks for watching. Ride safe brother.
My TRX costs' $100+ a week to commute and my GL1800 costs' me $10 -lol no brainer
I know. That’s a big savings. Just don’t mind rolling up to the pump and hitting that 87 button.
