And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
A pastime I sorely miss. Had 5 b'mers, 4 "airheads" and a "flying brick" during the 5 decades that I rode. K1100 RS, Marrekesh Red. Loved wearing those "chicken stripes" down. 100 rpm below red line and the tack read 140. Live now or forever hold your peace. http://www.k11og.org/reference/reviews/MotorWorldOnline_K1100RSRoadTest.shtml

ReplyDeleteI'd do that on the Ducati, but I'd likely dip too far down and rip my leg off.
