It is not a motorcycle but according to the mover, customs and Landata, it is also not a scooter. I guess call it what you want but it is NOT a cage! I hope to cover the whole country... eventually anyway! I am just happy it is finally here. I have been riding for many years ( since I was 10 off and on) and my Dad and Brother both ride Honda Goldwings. I hope to get them here one day for a nice tour of the Islands.

    Yes there is more traffic but riding is the same as everywhere. No one sees you or looks for you or gives you any respect! Maybe they should change the name from "motorcycle" to "moving target"
    The good thing about the 3 legged bike is that it does get noticed more often than a normal bike.
    Texas has the most registered motorcycles of any state in the US but is mostly flat and boring.

    I think i met her !

    Briefly
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Hi Brad. It looks like we joined up a bout the same time. Also hope to catch up with you and the MP3 some time on the north Shore.
    Go well friend.
