    A snippet...

    A snippet from a recent email exchange...

    Him: "You know you're a test pilot don't you?"
    Me: "Yes. Yes I do."
    Him: "That doesn't bother you?"
    Me: "No, not at all. I've got news for you. I LIKE being a test pilot."
    Him: "But...anything could happen."
    Me: "Actually, I'm counting on that. It's why I ride."

    Anything could happen.

    I'll see you on the road...

      Well said!

      You've got a flair with words. I have described you as our spokesman for those that don't get it.

      SWMBO got it after reading your prose, and now rides with me.

      Them: "Why do you ride those things?"
      Me: "If you have to ask, you'll never understand."

      We bikers understand why dogs stick their heads out the window of moving cars...

      WOW - What a ride!

              Why do I ride? Simple. Half the wheels and twice the fun.

              If I just wanted to get there, I'd drive a minivan.

              Once you un-can a can of worms, the only way to re-can them is with a bigger can.
