Cool huh?
Its a 2007 Triumph Scrambler, a remake of the 1964 Triumph that Steve McQueen rode in the International Six Day Trials in Erfurt, Germany. They were called 'Scrambler' races.278 was McQueen's racing number.
I would have expected myself to want a crotch rocket, but... I just don't. I'm not really that interested in fast bikes or fast cars. My scrambler will go about 95 with no problems, but I only did that once just to see, it was kinda cool, but I don't feel a need to do it all the time.
Meredith asked me a week or so ago if I had a dream car, and honestly, I don't. I have a company car that I don't have to pay for, and we have our minivan that gets the fam where we need to go. I'm happy with that. But a dream car? I guess the closest thing to a dream car would be... a VW Phaeton.
2007 VW Phaeton
Its a nice car, looks good and its reliable.
Shouldnt I want this car?
This is the Citroen GT Concept car
Its kinda cool, but wouldn't ever want one. I have no desire for this kind of car or lifestyle.
Today I was out in Abilene KS working at a hospital, and I drove bast a house with this bike out front;
Ive never ridden a bike that's this fast, and I wondered if I really did like this kind of bike, but I just never knew. So I called the guy to ask if I could ride it and we met and I did.Turns out I was right. It went fast and felt like I could die at any second. It was unstable, uncomfortable and it sounded like a vacuum cleaner.
Aren't guys supposed to love everything fast? I just think its odd of me. Funny thing is that it doesn't bother me, and I don't feel the need to pretend.
My buddy Josh has a Hayabusa its the fastest street legal production motorcycle out there (or so he tells me (I love parentheses, I feel like I can explain so much while in them, like im free to roam about the unconscious and drop whatever randomness on you that I feel like. All because I used the curvy line (im not that excited about using them, Its just a stunt to make you laugh dont trust anything I say while in them) I can (ok so I really do love them) say whatever (ok maybe I dont love them, but I sure can use them to their fullest potential) I feel like and not worry about making complete sense or even staying within the subject of the sentence!(I wonder If I can tell people that if sometimes they cant hear me its because im in()?)) and he takes it out all the time on the interstates around Minneapolis and hits 120mph weaving though traffic. He is absloutely out of his mind, and i have no problem telling him what I think and of course he just laughs and says he loves it.
So! Do I have a point?
Yes I do!
I like Tacos.

(what was the point of all if that?) great post Hun! Loved it!
But no really...I'm SO GLAD that you have no need for speed. It makes me very very happy. And it also makes me trust you very much when you ride your bike, or take me out on it. Thank you for that!
WOW!!! That just made me laugh so hard! You are hilarious!
Your Bald Headed Granny! You always were all over the place.
You're so funny. I'm so glad you don't want fast motorcycles. and that you like tacos. Me too. bought two of the just last night for my dinner. thanks for sharing the far side!
I love your parenthetical rant. (Taco, taco taco taco) and It makes me glad that you feel no need to practically kill yourself whenever on your bike. That is a very good thing.
I'm sorry that your sense of inferiority toward me makes you feel the need to say such things. If you didn't wish so bad that you were as awesome as me, maybe we could get along. And maybe you wouldn't have to talk about tacos, because we all know that tacos are just a metaphor for ....
Sorry, I shouldn't tell everybody your problems out in the open. I'm just sorry that you aren't as cool as me.
