Anyway.....so i was in cycle gear today talking to one of the main guys there and he said the park service has raised enough money to put in speed bumps. including on the curves. huh.....hmmmmmph........grrrrrrrrrr WTF

As long as we know where they are, we can use them to catch air.  What a drag!  Another example of The Man holding us down.

Not an issue for me since I ride very slow and cautious on that stretch of road anyway [laugh] ;D
Just wonder how the bicycle riders feel about this, especially going downhill ???
Sounds like some lobbying might be in order [thumbsup] This should come from the bicycle
crowd and the bike folks should be the support staff [evil]

pfffft...   one days rental of a jack hammer and the speed bumps become a non issue

I guess the national parks are for everybody....except scofflaws like me, huh?

I wonder if they'll reconsider this after the first few accidents attributed to these speed bumps and their accompanying lawsuits? [bang]

Ya know....back to the original question posed by the title of this thread.....HELLS NO!!!!  

Right now I'm missing the Crest desperately.  

I NEED to twist the throttle and tilt the horizon.  

I LONG to hear 9,000 tiny explosions per minute emanate from the tailpipes of a Ducati twin.  

I PINE to see freshly wrinkled rubber hanging from the edge of my Pirelli Diablo Rossos.  

(This is the part of the post where the dirty bastids amongst you will notice that the capitalized bits above express some subliminal desire for Kingbaby's attentions .....WRONG!!!!!  Kingbaby doesn't sport any of that stuff!   ;D)

I ACHE to breathe in the scent of cooked rubber mingling with good, fresh coffee.

(Man...I just keep dropping bait for you dirty bastages, don't I?) 

I NEED a 1098R.....wait....let's not get carried away, here.  I WANT a 1098R.  There.  That's better.

I MISS SUMMER.   :'(

Given the snow dumped on my other home in NY Friday and Saturday, and the fact that I've been on my Monster almost every day since I got back to ABQ, I am looking forward to being back in April and renewing my relationship with the Crest.
Nobody said that I did. Everyone says that I would.
