It's getting creepier. I checked out Angie's List once, a month ago, and now everywhere I go I see ads for Angie's List. It's like the whole internet has become Amazon.com.

Thanks again. Interesting

Thanks again.

Interesting development on the first link. I clicked through and located nearest dealer. Today via snail mail I got a flyer from the manufacturer addressed to my real name and my home address. How did they do that?

This time I will copy/paste the link into an incognito window. :-D

The videos were fun to watch. I kind of want one of those that the Aussies are riding, the ride I am going on today has some big hills! I want to fly up them and leave everyone behind in the dust. However, it did freak me out a bit to see them ride on the wrong side of the road... damn that is dangerous!

I found this 15 minute

I found this 15 minute youtube of a high speed ride on the Stealth electric bicycle, which was developed in Australia, but is available in the US:

I also found this webpage devoted to getting away with riding ebikes that travel over the legal limit of 20 mph.

Bad luck about the wreck.

Bad luck about the wreck. Sounds like I could have said bad luck about the bad break and been right. I tried to think of some clever political metaphor joke about how people turning left kill motorcyclists. But it is no joke, left turns by four wheel drivers are the number one way bikers are killed in accidents with other vehicles. I've ridden a lot of miles and had close calls with other vehicles but I have also been lucky and never hit one. The worst accident I had was a high speed slide on asphalt. Injured about a third of my body, but only skin deep. To paraphrase Jimmy B:

Some people say

There was whiskey to blame

But I know.........,

It was my own damned fault.

Nowadays they call these

OMG I had a Lambretta too. But some lady rand into me on it and put me in the hospital for 6 week.

An Allstate [Sears] Moped was

In reply to I think that was the updated

An Allstate [Sears] Moped was my first moto too. Then a Lambretta, a Suzuki X6 Hustler, a Honda 305 Super Hawk, Suzuki 180 dirt bike, Honda 750 K2, Bajaj 150 scooter, Yamaha TW200, Honda Pacific Coast, and now a Suzuki VStrom 650, and a Honda VFR 800 Interceptor. Quarter mile in 11.22 seconds and 155 mph top end and corners like its on rails [they say] but not with me on it. Not anymore.
A couple questions about the picture. Is that moped yours? What is the naked bike in the background, and who is the girl on the locker? I think I might know her.

Actually they look more that
