"I was in the local Ace Hardware arranging for a new car key to be made.
We heard a sudden hellacious loud roar outside as a motorcycle rapidly
accelerated from the parking lot.
The hardware store fellow looked aside to me and commented wryly, "I
want to be that guy, when I grow up !"
We have little turds like that around here. Zero to infinity in an
instant, only to get caught at a light, or stuck in traffic anyway doing
a fraction of the speed. Big show-offs, show how fast they can
accomplish nothing in the end, while pissing everyone off.
I almost feel bad. My new ride can achieve just over ~25% of Mach 1
(sounds impressive when put like that!). I think I hit half that once
for a moment, that was enough.
I take it out for exercise to the grocery store every two or three weeks.
