New Toy

B has a new toy. He is the proud new owner of a 1976 Triumph motocycle. He first thought it would be a good bike for a friend of ours but that friend decided not to buy it. B was on the fence but ended up diving into his rainy day stash to buy the bike. He now has a new project (if we ever get the upstairs renovation done). Hopefully it will be in good running order before summer is over. It stalled twice on the way home from the dealer. The dealer is only 3 blocks from our house!

No matter how it runs, it's pretty. Burgundy with red flames painted on the tank (I'm a sucker for flames on a bike!). I might just have to learn how to ride a motorcycle so we can ride together. I personally like being a passenger better. The driver has to pay attention to the road. The passenger can enjoy the scenery. However, a driver usually has a few options for foot rests which somewhat alieves the soreness in the posterior. There are pros and cons.
