Am I the only one who thinks that the NYC MTA needs to establish an "Off Peak" time and fare reduction? Why should I have to pay the same price riding between the hours of 12 midnight and 5 am on the subway as someone who works a 9 to 5 gig and travels in between 5 & 9 am? Traveling between the hours of 12 midnight and 5 am on weekdays you receive a lower quality of service which includes less trains available which means you must leave earlier equating to less sleep, there are with regularity, cancellations of service that require you to take shuttle buses or other lines which all equate to longer travel time & inconvenience; again less sleep. This is all because the MTA uses these hours for the larger portion of any of their maintenance & repair work. The point I'm making is not to have the MTA do their maintenance work during rush hour but that those who bear the brunt of the inconvenience be compensated for their misery. I think that $1.00 off the fare is fair. Hey there's a slogan FAIR FARE! A tee shirt is born! Who's with me??

This is where I'm headed. I've gotten too many union notices of brothers who've passed on and had too look down into the caskets of too many people who's age was within an arms length of mine. I don't want to be looking back with regrets about not pullin' the trigger. A wise man once said to me "you miss one hundred percent of the shots you don't take." I can truly say that I have never regreted spending any money on a motorcycle in my entire life. So Fat Bob, here I come!
