Side view sadly makes the wheels look too small. (The view shows up in the upper left corner of the page under “You May Also Like”.)

This looks like a moto made to resemble a Lego version of a moto. I like it. A lot.

No. If I want to combine “adventure” with “motorized two-wheeled transport”, I need to able to stand up and absorb the terrain with my legs, not my spine.

Thank you. This really drives the point home. The hero image is of a dowdy wagon, but your pic literally puts the atrocity in perspective.

I think Bangle is pretty great.

Harkens back to a sharknose 6 Series? I’ll allow it.

Checking in at 11pm (hour 22) to check your progress. Tracker is showing you guys at mile marker 202. I am sure there must be a story! Good luck and I hope you’re all doing okay.

Exactly. Owned a Volvo 745 for 15 years now. Not for kids - for road trips with mountain bikes. It’s a dependable, practical, fantastically analog rear-drive car with loads of space for gear.

Thanks! 8+ hours in, and he’s still in #1. Crazy, he has 200 more miles before he hands the bike off at MP 494.

Some of the craziest moto riders do it solo. This is the Ironman class, plate nos 700-799. My brother has done that a few times. This year he’s plate 300X and sitting in first in class per the tracker!

In the latest installment of Fast and Furious, Paul Walker climbs onto the hood of his car (Evo?) to jump aboard the bus that the baddies are on. Walker was the only person in his car - what, it drove itself while he climbed out and balanced on the hood at speed? Just one of many stupid things in that otherwise…

You think Seneca Crane is reading Mockingjay here?

Never, ever lift. Not even once.

Also, the inability for cars (usually Toyotas/Lexii in my unscientific study) with DRLs to fail to turn on actual headlamps when it’s dark.

Sith Lord?

He upgraded in the 90s, ya know. ;)

As I’ve posted before, an American car mag (can’t recall which one - probably MT) revealed that three designers had their hands in the design of the most recent SL. I blame the "design by committee" approach.

I figured this was the truck that inspired this post, not the GTA Notchback. That Chevy - what a piece.

Note LACK of buttons near the screen on dash. They gotta put 'em somewhere.

IIRC this also happened in Pennsylvania....
