My wife is a smart one. She knows me well.

An aside, I was horrified at the terrible state of the post — typography, image, etc. It was a port over from Blogger to WordPress. Not pretty. So I went through and “updated” the appearance. Ugh. Hate to look at some of the old posts…

Kim must be a very intelligent woman and i salute her. you could have wasted your money on something you didn’t actually need. But she saved you from all that mess. you should be grateful to her for that. We women are very influential and if we think that what you are about to do is not right, we will talk you out of it until you realize you don’t actually need it.

Kate: All I have to do is determine which mechanic wants to be tagged as the Vespa mechanic! With three of them there I have the suspicion that they want to be Ducati man, Triumph guy, and BMW lord…

I’m waiting for you to interview your Vespa mechanic.

Doug: Lately it seems I have been given the opportunity to make decision after decision --foolish and otherwise.

I will take your comments to heart and loosen my grip on reality a bit!

SonjaM: While that vintage of the BMW R100 GS is a looker I have heard from a few people that the transmission leaves much to be desired and that it is a pretty clunky shifter.

I'll have to keep dreaming about it and maybe one will appear.

It's nice to have a voice of reason in the house. Makes for a smoother journey.

Steve, No, you’re not already too old to make foolish decisions. I suspect that I’m older than you and I’m still making them.

One of the prettiest beemers ever made. If I had the 5k+ I would have purchased it. It seems to be in shipshape and was probably pampered by the owner. I hear ya, I want it, too! And I can totally relate to the conversation you had with Kim. My better half is my voice of reason when it comes to get a grip on my desires. Otherwise my parking lot would be occupied by several two-wheeled objects. Excellent write-up.

Mr. Riepe: Now that sounds like a Twisted Roads bumper sticker!
