Well,

I have not totally given up my DC habit, but I decided that throwing an average of $600 each month at my DC habit was getting silly.

So, I decided to get sell off much of my farm, having reached my target of 30,000 Seti WU's, and do something more fun with the money.


Ladies, Gentlemen, and IB, I produly present my new toy

My New Toy (http://max.nealon.net/toys)

Heh heh

/me wonders how far I can overclock it.......

You just cannot take the chance - jeans last about 2ft at 30mph on tarmac, skin last 3-4 inches - 1.6mm race-grade leather lasts 120-140 ft. Guess what I tend to ride in :)

I'm had a few brushes with the pavement over the years, my Diannese leathers where shredded in a 120mph get-off, but apart from a couple of friction burns, my skin survived.

Around here (SoCal) many people ride in shorts and vests - scary !!!

Congratulations! It's about time. :)

We're going to have to get together (somewhere in California) and go riding. I'm fixing my VFR up and when it's done I'm taking a road trip.

ps. you get more mileage on the front tire if you keep it in the air.

Chinasaur - there is no index.html, et al... so the link doesn't work.
Is this you? http://atgreen.net/moto/ice2.jpg :D
Great looking country!

Yep that's me. Eastern side of the Cascades in Leavenworth.

Don't need an index.html file if the server returns the directory contents. IB..odd..I pasted that into three sep browsers and all displayed the directory contents without an index.html file. But you got in since you have that file name.

http://atgreen.net has a link that works for me as well. Server seems to be down tho.
