I think that there are some folks on the list that need to go for a
ride.

That reminds me...

Some say replacing the plain air in the tires with synth-air results  
in a 25% reduction in road noise and a 20% increase in mpg. I've  
found it is a 13% to 15% reduction in noise and a 5% mpg  
improvement...max. What a waste of BMW boxer-tops.

Excuse me...I gotta run, I need to de-glaze the cross-over plugs, de- 
magnetize the ABS transmogrifiers, degauss the fuel sensor (again!)  
before I can ride de-bike.
