Be still my beating heart, but that Le Mans is SWEEEEEEEEEET. Too bad I'm broke.

Nice bikes but isn't that the way it works? The more broke you are the better stuff you find.

The trick is to figure out how to be broke and have access to lots of money. It's the secret. Unfortunately, it's a secret, and I don't know the secret.

I suffer from multiple bike syndrome, but I don't have a Guzzi. But, one of these days, one will probably follow me home even though there's no place to put it and more money for more bikes is a really stupid idea.

It must be a Guzzi thing. Either you are blissfully ignorant of them or you want a Guzzi.

Thanks on the bike, it was a rescuue from New Orleans, post Katrina

And no, it wasn't a bank withdrawl thing, it was more of a get a grant to build a prototype urban car factory, then turn it into a motorcycle dealership, and build the cars in a shed out back, hmmmmmmmmmm the gov't didn't like that, go figure..............and the cars didn't work out well either, nobody wanted a two stroke, 250cc fiberglass, three wheel, non air conditioned car the height of a bathtub................again, go figure.............

Ok cool. I know some people that were doing clean up after Ike along the beaches with cat D9's and D9's and they would come across houses and garages that had been covered by sand and found all kinds of stuff included the owners of the garages from time to time.

Was the BMW and other Guzzi rescues as well?

Yes funny how they do not seem to have much of a sense of humor about things like that.
