One riding pointer: if you see water even a couple of inches deep, slow way down or you’ll get soaked. Fast.

I disagree about “knee dragging” in a ‘stich. Obviously, without knee sliders, you’d just grind through the material pretty fast (go into Willow Springs Turn 2 with a new suit, come out naked....). While you can custom order the addition of Velcro to attach knee sliders, the suits do not come with the thick padding…
Oh, man. I wanted this for my post-Apocalypse (war, famine, zombies, Trump presidency) survival pod. Besides, I was looking forward to killing sometime snorkeling and scraping off barnacles.
Oh, no, not the Hudson. Are you nuts? International waters.
When the interiors are non-staining and self-cleaning, the manufacturers can make them all-white. Until then, yes, keep them to the concept cars.
Did you and I get taught “forms of humor” in grade school and kids today don’t??
If the race moves to I-5, and that white Lamborghini is competing, I’m in...on a street bike.
(Nice TG reference. Just when the whole Falklands thing was starting to blow over....)
JESSE! PLEASE DELETE MY ABOVE POST! IT SAVED TOO EARLY AND I COULDN’T EDIT IT!
WARNING: THIS IS WAY TO LONG TO READ.
1) Ride a post-2008 Road King. You (and your old lady—you mean your mother, right?) will both enjoy it way more.
What? Eleventy steps? Naaah!
I agree. It’s not the days of the Model T.
All I understood was “new GSX-R1000” and built-in phaser. Please let that be correct....
Let’s see: I know it’s shiny. And I know that it looks like a late ‘70s-mid-’80’s Japanese cruiser (minus the inline 4-cylinder engine). (And that the photographer (I hope it’s nobody that I know) is VERY excited to have lined up the shot and the time to get the sun shining through the V-twin engine’s cylinders. BRAVO…
More proof that viewer love for two-wheeled racing in America amounts to itsy-bitsy TV ratings. FOX (I HATE you for dismantling SPEED!) is basically putting the qualifying races on a network that requires purchasing an additional channel package (that few of us already get, BeIn that now broadcasts WSBK (depending on…
I would continue but I have to make important comments about it.
What happened to racing to the death (of the vehicles)? Remember that Daytona Supercross race where the rain seemed to be coming out of fire hoses and the track turned to deep mud and deeper water and bikes kept turning into overheated piles of steam?
The hell with that, Sean. If there is a laser on my bike, it better be capable of vaporizing bad drivers’/riders’ vehicles on the road. And the bad drivers/riders. DARPA should be working on this. (Yeah, yeah, I know they already are, but how about for civilian use?). The patent will be worth billions of dollars. And,…
Not a bad idea at all. If that’s the direction taken, it should be a big bold number in a big, bold circle like the Mach 5 (see? I brought it around to cars and racing!). And if any of the astronauts want to wear scarves, that’s their own business.
