One of the Toolbrats came over today with a brand new 650 Ninja. All Black, and shiny with only 20 miles. She told me to take it, for a ride, so I did. I was surprised at how comfortable it was to ride. The seating position was not bad, and it had gobs of low end torque. I hated to bring it back, but I had to go to class. Toolbabe wanted me to drop her off at Toolbrats house on my way to class, so I did. When I got out of class there were 7 missed calls from Toolbabe. I thought this could not be good, so I called her. Toolbrat answered the phone, and said they were at the ER. Seems she was letting Toolbabe ride her old 250 Ninja, and they were coming back to the toolshed. A few blocks away they were making a left turn, and Toolbabe went wide, and hit the curb. She went tumbling, and broke her wrist. She is home resting, but I have to take her to a bone Dr. tomorrow. They might have to put in some metal.

I like vintage bikes because they take me away from the clutter of technology that I work with everyday and back to a simpler time of mechanical elegance and simplicity.. "ninadm"
