Ha ha, the fact that your ex wife didn't take your K7 (much like Jerry's 3 ex wives didn't want his F) speaks volumes for her personal taste Wobbly,

I can assure you that it wasn't up to her. And it was I doing the leaving--at that point with nothing but my Honda and two packed  government-issued duffle bags. That was it. What does that tell you about my personal taste? :)

Ha ha, well I could be cruel and say "Not Much" mate, but that's probably not the answer you were hoping for? Anyway, congrats again on your win, and I hope your boy had a nice birthday. Cheers, Terry. ;D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

"Crazy is a very misunderstood term, it's a fine line that some of us can lean over and still keep our balance" (thanks RB550Four)

Thank you Terry, and thank you Bill, and everyone else for the congrats and birthday wishes. While the Honda still looks the same, the kids on that picture have seriously changed. Unfortunately, that goes for myself. I know, you would say: their taste has matured since they are not seen on the K7 anymore.:)
Thanks again everybody!

Thats fantastic that you've passed on your passion to your kids.

I tried with my daughter but failed. She is into bikes, but self powered, expensive carbon fiber triathlon bicycles are her choice.  Could be worse!
