All I could think about while reading this was my 1098cc Austin Healey Sprite. You get pretty much all the same lovely other car ruining thoughts. Read more

My neighbor drives an old spitfire around town like a Shriner car.  It's a real car-as-pants situation.  It looks fun as hell. Read more

These things have rear weight bias. Careful getting into a corner too hot, or you might turn the Beat around. Read more

Imagine the horror when he picks up one of these bad boys:

The entirety of Jalopnik would like a word.  Read more

I will definitely say that the past half century of American imperialism has not exactly cast this global spectacle in great light, but that really is a more modern lens on this past event. Only in the years after WWII could we still see a limitless budget American force dropping into Europe as an underdog story. Read more

Dear God is humanity in need of one cosmic reality check. Read more

I’m sad that Erotic Vagrancy wasn’t the name of a girl-punk band in the 70's. Read more

Looks fun. I’ll bring my kidney belt, and tell the tow driver to meet us at the potholes.

I regularly partake in outdoor adventures including a thruhike of the John Muir Trail this summer and tons of bike packing adventures. My friends will randomly ask, “would you ever climb Mt. Everest?”

Also, !!!!!!!!!!!

You have NO IDEA how much I want to put a foxtail on the 944. I have a useless antenna that got drilled through the fiberglass sunroof panel (and thus, has no ground...I’m still mad about this), so it must happen.

Whenever I hear loud music, my left ear just becomes muffled and starts ringing. It all goes back to that MOB show in the early eighties when I sat with my left ear about a yard away from one of their PA speakers. Such is life. Read more

I’d even love to see MBV now. We saw A Place To Bury Strangers a year or so ago and I would imagine that was somewhat similar to MBV in many ways- LOUD and a lot of swirly. I wasn’t prepared for how loud that first note/hit would be. You could literally see the first row of people kinda pushed back when they started.… Read more

This. I live in a California town affected pretty badly by urban sprawl, so my only motorcycle is my big-bore pleasure craft. It’s legal to split traffic and our freeways are roomy enough to support it. But if I lived in SF? You better believe I’d have the most badass little 50 cc Honda Metropolitan.

I wish I could do that but a bike ride from one corner of the bronx to 48th and 5th ave in Manhattan may be the death of me. Read more

Shit, I didn’t think of that.
