Some very hilarious Baka quotes
160+ MPH with my Mustang, once racing a CHP at his request
and the one time of way over 160 on a motorcycle. I did get off and kiss the ground after that one. I used to pass cars on the freeway at 65+ while doing a wheelie just for the looks on their faces a race prepped 1973 Kawasaki 750... Wheelied that one once at 120+ I once pegged a 160 MPH speedometer, but only once. I rode a tricycle at nearly 50 when I was 4(5?) years old down a hill and got brought home by the cops in like 1952 I actually have to agree with you this time. am very safe and confident and have been riding since 1951. My first road trip was in 1953 when I took my trike out on the highway to see haw fast I could go down a big hill. About 35, feet off pedals, and having a blast. At the bottom a local cop picked me up and took me back home, saying I was the youngest rider he had ever seen on the road. 4.5 years old. hat was basically the point since I grew up in Chicago and couldn't find hills until I rode North to the Wisconsin border. That's insane. 50 MPH downhill on pavement is my record and I am positively not looking to break that on the side of a mountain. There will be no convincing people of what I have done since there were no witnesses other than myself. The trike speed was purely a provocation, the motorcycle getting close to 200 MPH was not, and the Mustang I had was taken past 160 by both me and my wife. he bike had a 160 MPH speedo which pegged at about 170, after which the tach continued to gain from that point, about 8,000 RPM to nearly 9,000. I used to be a REAL biker when I rode a motorcycle and rode with the gang types on Harleys. the motorcycle getting close to 200 MPH Anyway, my need for speed pretty much went away after that, and I have kept it under 140 ever since, and that was only once in 1990. I electrocuted myself once when I was maybe 12, climbing a tree and touching a 12,000 volt wire, then getting a jump start hitting the ground flat on my back Doing 130MPH on a vacant road is a lot safer than lane splitting in a traffic jam, and no I did not mean to mislead people that I pedaled a bicycle that fast. At one point I dreamed of getting my hands on a surplus F-104 to feed my need for speed but the Air Force is kind of tight with surplus supersonic jets. I'm well above MENSA Bowling 229, wifes bowling 289. 1966 Chrysler Newport with 1968 440 Police engine, about 152 I have interests in sooo many subjects ranging from sub-atomic to trans-universal that it is hard to focus on just one. In person I am much more sociable than on this group I am just tired of self proclaimed experts who don't actually know something (or have been taught the wrong something) trying to rag on everything I say about just about anything. |

It's everyone else's fault. He said nothing about Bill, And he said nothing /to/ Bill. I said nothing to Baka because what I found reading his posts is Baka turns every thread about anything into a thread about Baka. he simply repeated Bill's words. Why?
