Well, no one in my private life has any desire for me to have one. My mommy even said she forbid it. So far I am not going forward with it but it is still a thought.

Holy crap. My midlife crisis didn't kick in until I was 55 and bought a convertible.

^^^ I pulled into my local dealer awhile back and noticed some f*cktard TALKING on his cell phone--in his left hand--while his right hand was on the throttle. Un-freaking-believable.

On a local note, Click Baldwin died last night. Not a discouragement to anyone; rather, as great a guy as he seemed, you just can't fix stupid.

It is the Can-Am Spyder. They are new and are sweat. I think so anywway. I have seen a couple of them on the road and really like them. If I get a bonus at year end you will be finding one in my garage.

Nice, but a great part of the attraction of a bike for me is the two wheel aspect, squeezing where i cannot in a car, and leaning. A three wheeler as kick ass sci-fi as it looks seems to lack something.

If i were single/no kids, I would buy a harley sporter or a Yamaha v-max

cheers
