Well this is disappointing.
I thought you were posting pictures of your new Austin Healy.

I had that done for an exam before I got Lasik.  I got outside and it was a bright. sunny. day. and I forgot my sunglasses. :o  Didn't take long before I caved in and used the silly looking roll-up polarized 'shades' they give out @ the office. ::)

Only had that done once when I was about 12.  The blurriness and disorientation made me puke, and then I still had to go out on my bike to deliver the afternoon newspaper. :-X ;D

I was expecting something about the Triumph Speed Triple.

Keith - I have no idea why, but I was thinking that you were in the 32 year old range, so that pic caught me off guard.  Nice ride.
