Re: Dead list? -- Learning to Live With Helmet Hair

["Steve Makohin" <wateredg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Bob,

My wife drives a Z3, and she can't figure out what the fun is in getting, 
wet in rain, sweating in heat, having to wear a helmet, or don riding gear. 
She just hops in the Z, puts the top down, and goes. I guess some folks just 
love riding. Others don't.
