So, as anyone who’s followed my blog for a year or more knows, I got motorcycle fever last spring and summer.
It all started innocently enough. I got a ride on my father in law’s scooter (hey, I had the helmet already thanks to autocross, right?) It was something of a disaster–maneuvering the 600cc scooter at low speed wasn’t *quite* as easy as I thought.
Long boring story later, I had full-blown fever. I took the MSF course and REALLY learned how to ride, FINE-C, the whole deal.
Then came the apodiction: “YOU WILL NOT BUY A MOTORCYCLE.”
Fair enough.
Thought I had a loophole today–an ATV. Del, my carpool buddy, hatched a plan of engineering perfection. An ATV’s offroad vehicle, far away from Semi’s and other could-squash-you-like-a-bug stuff. Fits quite well, no?
No. They’re deathtraps.
That’s also a NO on Dirtbikes.
