    Yeah, but that's half the fun.

    And you won't get nearly as many weird looks as I did wearing my one-piece (racing) leathers and carrying my helmet while riding public transit during rush hour.

    I had been considering a hot air balloon at one point, however, I couldn't work the logistics of the basket into the equation. That said, I've been told that there is a jock strap option available, and I'm looking into that.
    I'll keep ya'll posted

    It might be best to keep the motorcycle at home, not only for reasons concerning weight on the truck, but also to avoid potential damage to the motorcycle itself, due to either vandalism or an accident with the truck itself.

    God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

    I saw a guy with a Volvo once that had some knid of fold up gas powered scooter in his side box. Unfolded it, put the handlebars up and rode off. Wish I would have went over and talked to hime about it.

    A 300 pound truck driver would look like he is levitating going down the road riding one of those.
