In my case, it has more to do with having met Sara at CSTN last fall. While I don't know her real well, this seemed completely out of character for her. Thus the "I'm shocked" tongue in cheek comments.
Was she the person with the blinged out strom? (the moodlighting) or was that rocketbunny? |

Note:you don't use a saw, you use a pipe-cutter.  Nooo, to truly make the system hate you. Use small tank of liquid nitrogen and a big hammer. By the time it gets investigated the whole thing is just a pile of shattered crumbs of metal & plastic. Ooops did I say that? |

For 65 in a 45 a couple months ago. I passed an unmarked car. (no really, I PASSED him) He was driving like a blue-haired old woman. I didn't know it was a cop.  I've passed many a cops. i just don't do it on just the rear wheel.  |

Sara,
What did you have in the tankbag??
Mp3 player, cell phone, garage door opener, hair brush and tampons.  (You did ask) *I suspect he knew that my carry permit is expired and wanted to add something else to the ticket. He would have been disappointed because I wasn't packing. |

I definitely need to get one of these bikes now! I was just thinking for using it on dirt roads and what-not. Dukes of Hazard never crossed my mind! Does your horn play a song?

Not to hijack this thread, but several of you didn't get the "hacksaw meets parking meter" reference. You need to drop everything and go rent "Cool Hand Luke." Until then, you suck as a human.

He would have been disappointed because I wasn't packing. By the way, if you put tampons on top in your bag, just about any male will suddenly not want to look anyway. |

By the way, if you put tampons on top in your bag, just about any male will suddenly not want to look anyway. The best way to secure a bike when traveling is to cover it and place feminine hygiene products around it. Men are afraid of those things and women usually don't steal bikes. |

OK, we've got ourselves a gun-toting, rights-asserting, hard-riding chick with enough smarts and style to put the leg-humpers in their place. Sara, please tell me you're going to the Nat--first beer's on me!  |

The sticker on the front of her bike explains it all... Plus I'm guessing she went to Alabama to ADV's No Clever Name. |

Kind of like ESTN but with port-a-potties and bottle rockets.  BTW, I wore my ESTN Roadkill shirt to the ADV rally. There is no need for a site war, there is plenty of love in the world for everybody. |
