It would seem that _glitch_ and I both got into riding, but in enormously different fields. Here's me from about two months ago. imgur.com/a/YRo26

I'd love to get a motorcycle, but the wife is way too concerned that I'm going to spread myself all over the highway! I might pick up a dirtbike someday, when I have more property.

Whoa. Look who's back with us. Welcome and stick around. Probably wise about the bike. You really have to be ready for 1 of those if you have hotdog tendencies, and I am not saying you do, but if you do caution is better.

Oh, I definitely do... that's why I tend to keep things under pedal power - I'd rather blow up at 35mph than at 135mph.

I honestly don't know how the crotch rocket guys do it, as it's a pretty white-knuckle experience even going that quick.

That's intense. I don't know how they do it, either... did you catch that video that's been doing the rounds on Facebook of those crotch rocket dudes racing on Isle of Man, blowing up at 200mph? Apparently they all survived... but that's just insane.

My truck is hooked to a 2 car trailer. We are going to bring 2 of my dad's old cars to a Williamsport car show. The 1st on the trailer is a 40 Buick the 1 toward the back is the blue 50 Lincoln that we had lead the procession at his funeral.

Looks like your truck is up for this. Those are two big cars too if one is a Buick and the other is a Lincoln.

Including the blue Lincoln that led the procession at his funeral. But its time for some other collectors to enjoy them and my mother gets a pretty nice payout.

I can well imagine and we all go through similar things eventually

my mother sees it as some closure. We still have a lot of dad's cars and tractors. We might sell his building after they're all gone but I might retire at age 55 and if I did I might hobby like he did if we still have that building by then.
But for now we aren't using them and my mother said 'its time for some other old men to enjoy them.'
