:lol8: I admit that there have been times I wished I do the same thing. Not proud of it. Just admitting the facts.
I would also bet most people have also wished they could do the same at one time or the other in their life. I guess what makes one a rational adult is the ability to stop at the wish stage. It is what it is.
Haha ... yeah, smart guy.Quote:

The branded content (Honda sponsored) is good fun. Enjoy!

If any of your girls are reading this thread and available for a ride with Motokai, PM me!!
Heh heh ... these girls are called the "New Bees" (although they are changing their name). It is a group arranged by Motorcycling magazine (it has a full page ad, each month, encouraging girls to join) with various sponsors (including Honda). The intent is to show that motorcycles can be fun, and that even girls can ride them - and also to change the "bad boy" image of motorcycling. The last few months' issues have multi-page spreads. In 2011, they did Tibet. Unsure where 2013 will be heading. By the way, the riders get a small stipend and get to keep the personal gear. Not bad.Quote:

Want to ride with some? Come back to Beijing, as the Beijing contingent is quite large (not all go on the extended trips because of work obligations). Some members are ex-students of mine who I have encouraged to join (check my GW250 review for a pic of one "testing" the GW). A few MCM members have met a couple of them, including little Ms GW, and the first question is usually "do you have a boyfriend?". Always fun to ride with them ... not only pretty, but also properly trained :) :)
However, I am a VERY protective old guy ... you won't get very far if I am around!
And here is a video submission for the upcoming Dutch/German JH/X5 drag race ...

Sorry, don't know how to embed liveleak on MCM.
BMW's 90 years.
As my acquaintance says: "Das Mädchen kann vom Land stammen, aber das Motorrad muss aus dem Bayern kommen." :icon10:

I can understand why they left out sidecar painted in feldgrau, but why there is no at least a dozen pre-war and post-war models? They deserved it.
Thanks for reply LJH. Good info.
Looking forward to the Dutch/German JH/X5 drag race .
The liveleak wouldn't stream, so if anyone has the problem here's the YouTube.
Probably most of you have seen so far a video clip from Russia, where a tank pops out onto the road in front of the shocked driver.

OK, it's funny.
