As Henry Manney would say, Land O'Goshen, number 7 was
the charm. After Number 6 (the wife's, ugh, minivan),
a friend came by for a motorcycle ride with his rice
rocket Suzuki Bandit, 1200cc, 475 lbs, 125 HP with
mods (I have a $600 duffer, a 26 yr old Honda). After
we came back, he demanded that I try it. There is a
little 1/3 mile strip behind my house, I hit 110 MPH
uphill, biggest grin I've had since the Frederick's of
Hollywood catalog showed up in the mail...so that's
why they make those things....
