No doubt I could have picked it up cheaper on Ebay, but I WANTED IT NOW! Besides, in my maturity I have come to realize that there are two kinds of money in my wallet. One kind is for every day needs, the things we must have to meet our obligations. (Which includes roses for the lady(s) in our life but that's another story.) The other kind of money is for motorcycles and cycling related adventures. This type of money is fleeting and will not stay with us for very long. So we may as well spend it on something useful.
