Well other road users would surely see you well enough due to the sparks flying as you slide down the road.

But would you ever stop ?

[msbuck]

Looks like you have too much time on your hands and non-riding weather. . .

Looks like you have too much time on your hands and non-riding weather. . .  

Yes! to both and with two  months to spend before the weather improves sufficiently to permit driving you will see more of this from my hand.

Trolle,

Who is the short guy on the R65?  It looks like his feet don't even reach the pegs!  (Unless there are resets on the bike I can't see..)

Greetings from Sunny Ft.Lauderdale where I may be trapped trying to get home before the storm in Atlanta.  Could be worse... 8-)

Who is the short guy on the R65?

He hasn't identified himself probably because he realized that to communicate with the visor down is to waste one's breath (what he had left of it after climbing the bike).

He may be short in our eyes but among his contemporaries he probably was regarded as a tall man.

His mounting of the r65 was really difficult due to the missing foot pegs.

greetings from a sunny and relatively warm, 37F, north

SIR RIDEALOT!!!  He was short wasn't he?

[trolle]

Yeah both he and his trusty squire TROTALONG, whose descendant Hopalong Cassidy was a very able horseman, went through a lot of adventures together of which "The Adventure of the Unreachable Peg" is the best known.
