"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Wow, this is a blast from the past. I enjoyed re-reading & seeing some names & avatars I had nearly forgotten.  [Dolph]

I was surprised I hadn't confessed to a moment with my ST2 a few years ago, after it died as I rolled into a gas station 100 miles or so from home. Weird; it never did that before (or since). It had gas, the voltmeter said it had enough juice, everything seemed copacetic, but the starter just wouldn't crank. Attempts to roll start did nothing but earn loud laughter from the rotating audience of Harley riders who were passing through. After a futile half hour or so with my friends & (former) girlfriend getting increasingly impatient, I finally declared defeat, parked it, and rode the little Monster 600 two-up all the way back into town, borrowed a trailer and retrieved the ST2.

It was a week or so later when I finally had time to start diagnosing the problem, at which point I almost immediately discovered the kill switch in the off position.  [bang]

Went to leave for work.  Got to truck, keys not in my pocket.  Went back in looked around for them, back to truck for same, rinse repeat a few times.  Get ready to call boss say I'll be late and when I went for my phone I realized they were IN MY HAND the whole time.  I felt like a dumbass.

Went to Disneyland this weekend with the wife on the bike. About 6 hours later I realized I didn't have the key in my pocket. Get back to the bike about 8pm and there it is, still in the ignition...

I was just talking to a student about having attended the 1983 US festival.

It just occurred to me that because I drank a bunch of cheap wine during the first day, I literally have no memory of the bands that played that day.

I just googled the line up.

I saw the f'n Clash and I have zero memory of it.

Stupid alcohol.
Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me
