Mystical Mist
2007-11-03 21:52:00 I was driving South on the 405 freeway this morning around 8 o’clock. And right as I went over the hill and reached the Getty center area I saw it.

Road Rage Trigger Factors
2007-11-02 19:54:00 As I was reading news today’s morning I stumbled upon this funny article. A Sydney man was enraged when a woman showed him a “little pinky” gesture making a clear reference to the anti-speeding TV ad campaign.

Weak Spot
2007-11-01 18:10:00 About a year ago somebody on Adv Rider posted a link to old DTM footage on You Tube involving glorious Mercedes 190E and BMW M3’s. Since I’d already owned two E30 M3’s in the past, I figured it was time to try a Silver Star from Stuttgart. About two weeks later I was driving home ...

Nobody Walks in LA
2007-10-31 20:00:00 Obesity. Poor Fitness. Traffic. High Pollution. These are the plagues of modern American society. I just got a perfect example why. Right across from our office, not even 1/8 mile away, we just had a new restaurant opened. Not even a restaurant, just Super Fancy fast food joint where people come for lunch. Would you walk there? ... More About: Life , Walks , Nobody

2007-10-31 06:20:00 It was only 5 days ago that I wrote about Prius drivers. I got some comments in response both off and online.

2007-10-30 19:19:00 I got this jacket right when I started riding. Well, when I started to get out of my parking garage and trying to ride around on streets. It was early September.

Wordpress Upgrade - Part Deux
2007-10-30 03:13:00 Or rather WordPress degrade. Again this is absolutely irrelevant to motorsports.

Freedom of Movement with Less Freedom of Attire

2007-10-23 19:09:00 I see at least a couple motorcycle accidents a week since my commute includes a lot of riding.
