Speed 3 Pilot

Life is tough, it's tougher if you're stupid...

Gettin' old ain't for wimps...

You only live once and I feel like I'm running out of time...

I see that Cycle World is going to a quarterly, upscale, coffee table type of magazine, similar to what Motorcyclist has done.

While this is going to provide some good reads, where in the print world do I go for road tests, comparisons, letters to the editor, long term tests and the like?

I'm going to miss these two magazines, in the format that I've enjoyed them in for the last 50 years, as well as the defunct Sport rider, Cycle, and Cycle Guide.

YouTube of course.
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Not a great substitute for printed matter for this old guy... [roll]

Car projects on hold for this weekend, March 17-18. Next weekend scheduled to take the cylinder head off the '87 325i. If luck is with me (  [roll] ) I will get the head back on the same weekend (  [roll]  What could possibly cause me to even begin to think that? ).



OK, so I managed to only get the head off the engine this weekend.  The good news is that everything is perfectly flat in every direction on both the cylinder head and the block. The old head gasket never sealed properly & the main worry was that there was some previously undetected warpage that was setting up the oil leak. It is now known positively that is not the case so without any crazy extra expense and needed time everything can go back together. Hopefully next weekend. What a year............  [bang]  [bang]  [bang]

Trying a little different riding style plus a little less power & weight.

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

There are other sites. Imgur or something?

I'd say let's go ride, and I'm totally good with that, except I am still breaking things in and don't want to go on any extended freeway rides. It's the opposite now. I can make multiple trips over Tantalus & love it.  [Dolph]
