Someone talk me out of...

I’ve always been a “you’ll pry my manual out of my cold dead hands” type, and shifting a machine gives me a lot of satisfaction. I figured why quit now? Plus there’s less complexity.

Read this whole story and im still stuck on the concept of the guy with the 750cc pit bike

Ha ha! Yeah, pit bikes are a very personal choice. A few had beautifully restored vintage mopeds, Monkeys, CT90s and other small vintage bikes, a few had random scooters, some had highly modified Groms. The red and silver NC stood out in that crowd.

Over the Thanksgiving period I bought a 2019 Lexus GX 460 at the dealer.  They didn’t offer me any tours…

If you haven’t seen it go to YouTube and watch SNL’s Lexus holiday skit. It’s hilarious. I have two friends who just bought new cars over Thanksgiving, and I didn’t want to feel left out, so I got the bike. 

And they didn’t get tours either, but apparently if you buy a new Bronco at Huntington Beach Ford, they throw in a California State Beach annual parking pass. 

Come to LA and I’ll throw in your free tour.
You know what? I actually would like a pickle.
