Ahhhh,such a great man and true hero. A man with guts and strong
convictions. Only reply if you have something nice to say about him.
BTW... it's been a loooong time since posting here and love the fact
that my old post are still available. "A man can fall many many times

He was a grump that wouldn't give you the time of day unless you had some
cash to fork over. By all accounts he was a very nasty individule.
How's that? :-)

It takes a lot more skill than you want to believe. Unless your actual goal
is a spectacular and bloody crash. There's no question that any fool could
rip a bike up a ramp and fly. How many could do it in such a fashion that
they could stay airborn for that far and even hope to land on two wheels
with a heavy, ancient bike. What have you done? I'll admit you have the
"being an ass" thing down pat, now go practice your landings.
