We’ve all seen variations of this meme:
Well, in keeping with the theme of today’s post, N will soon equal N + 1 as I am about to acquire yet another project bike (imagine the missus’ eyes rolling here). This time it’s not an orphaned mid-60s Honda to keep company with the ones I already have, but rather a relatively (with an emphasis on relatively) new mid-80s Kawasaki 440LTD.
Relegated to the back of the garage by the current owner, the bike comes into my possession as a result of a casual comment on the golf course, “It’s yours if you want it.” How could anyone who considers himself a biker ever say no to that?
And so tomorrow I will be in a rental truck heading down Highway 401 to Kitchener to pick up another stray needing some TLC and a home for the winter. It’s a disease for which there is no known cure.
And with a little luck, no one will have the desire, drive, or inclination to find that cure.
ReplyDeleteDavid - I can think of one person who might like to. :)
DeleteNice! I wouldn't pass it up either!
ReplyDeleteDar - Sometimes you just have to jump on it.
DeleteBeautiful! Good to see that you will be helping someone to have more usable space in their garage. Clearly you are a helpful person: a philanthropist! :-)
ReplyDeletePat - Never thought of it that way. I wonder if the philanthropy argument will hold water with she of the rolling eyes?
DeleteCool. Congrats. I am looking forward to seeing some pics.
ReplyDeleteComing soon.
DeleteYou had to take it for sure, no question there. If you have space they will come ... But I couldn't help thinking whoa; he came all the way from Kitchener just to play a game of golf?
ReplyDeleteLOL. Actually I was playing golf in Kitchener - along with some other family stuff.
