Motorcycle diaries

[V 0]

A few weeks back I mentioned an aquaplaning adventure with my motorcycle. Today it was unexpectedly slippery (newssites even mention the many accidents this morning) and this time the back-end of my motorcycle broke out. I was driving pretty straight at the moment (so no turn luckily) and I just went of the gas and it pulled itself back straight. I had many sharp turns coming right up, so needless to say I went at crawling speed through. Perhaps it was good I received the warning moments before :). I really need to move to a warm and sunny climate...

You said you went out of gas and I said you need to know when to fill up before going out of gas.

Or switch to the square box with seats and a heater mode of transport when its cold that most of us use all year round.

[OriginalGriff]

And clog the roads up even more? :laugh:

Well, I guess you could get a Peel 50[^] :laugh:

[OriginalGriff]

I think I'd rather use a C5 - at least you could back that up... :laugh:

Ehhm, you mean this car[^]? French cars are not exactly a favorite of mine, but they can't be Peel bad can they, or?

[OriginalGriff]

Regretably not: C5[^]

or for that open air feel with the stability of four wheels what about The P45[^]

[Kenneth Haugland]

Hah, much the same as my link to the French car :laugh: Or more like an ariel atom without the speed I assume :laugh:

[OriginalGriff]

Without the speed, protection from accidents, range, style, anything really.... :laugh:

He, he. This morning was raining even here and I cowardly wisely chose the car.

Veni, vidi, vici.

No, the dragons didn't like that one ;)

Don't know what to say to this except, really? :laugh:

I do not think I would have been able to recover. If I did I too would have went slow through the curve. I need to ride more. But not at -4F.

[OriginalGriff]

Well, at least you didn't have to pay a monthly rental for the batteries?
