Mines a bit more than a rumpus room.

Interesting indeed. Collect all three - yours, the DKW and the Norton.

Nah mate. Had several comebacks and the last one was it. I'd be on a bike right now if there weren't any cars on the road. The fear eventually got to me. The constant dread that one day I'd be taken out by some punk with his cap on backwards in his WRX sideways around a blind corner on my side of the road. Or some old blind biddy simply pulls out in front of me at an intersection. Or a hundred other similar scenarios. It like Russian roulette except there are more bullets in the gun.
