When your only tool is a hammer, everything looks like a Moto Guzzi.

I get shivers just looking at the photo and thinking of how our bulldogs would end up beating holy-hell outa the standing bike with the piñata hanging next to it.

I'd like to know more about this guy and his dangler but I no longer book face.

Oh my. You are right! (adjusts glasses)

I first thought it was an ok way to keep the bike upright and level; in my defence I thought that they were just green strops. ::)

I feel a T shirt coming on.........

I'll rush to the defense of my fellow countryman here and assure you this is a most professional way of handling a bike, also witness the precision tool in the foreground.
Sorry, RJU, just joking here, you're a way better mechanic than me!

Not to get off topic, but a friend of mine used to hang his mountain bike from a hook down the basement.  Otis his bulldog took a giant hunk of material out of that seat.  I'm chuckling right now as I type this!   ;D

" When your only tool is a hammer, everything looks like a Moto Guzzi."

Reminds me of a habit I picked up from my motorcycle mentor - whenever you go to do anything to a machine, take a hammer with you and place it near or on the machine.

It signals your willingness to get serious.

That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.

I was with Nevada yesterday and all is well with The Great One.

The Krispy Kreme apple fritter is his latest obsession.

Not too bad.   400 calories, 28 grams of sugar, 9 grams of saturated fat, no cholesterol.    He can burn that little bit off being rolled in the trailer park!

On the other hand, you probably would believe it. It's Mr. N.

A lot of us are worried about him right now and some of the people he is hanging with down south.

Yes, that's right, we can only guess.

Unless, of course, someone was to tell us about it .... ?

Is he still hanging out in the campground with his motorhome? Deland? Deltona?
