Dream Machine

Naughty but definitely nice! Sorry "nice" is not supposed to be a word in the English vocabulary is it? Any "nice" should always be replaced by something meaningful.
"Exciting" is much closer to how I feel about this bike. It has got my juices going again to learn how to ride a motorcycle. So step 1 is probably either to get myself onto a training course so that I can get qualified straight away or to buy a smaller bike ( a 125 Trials bike will suffice ), get some experience and the go for the Steve McQueen inspired Triumph Scrambler jobbie.
I am sure people are lining up ready for the " what is someone your age doing with a dream like this"? or "this is definitely an old man grasping at youthful straws thing" or "it's a deathtrap on 2 wheels, are you sure this is what you want"? But hey, life is for living and I am in the mood at the moment to start living the dream. What dream? Any dream! What do I dream about? Saving the world from climate change / saving Africa from drought and AIDS / saving myself from rampaging senility. This dream fits into the latter!
I dream about a lot of other things besides but that's for another day!
