So what gives?
Although motorcycles and scooters comprise 3.6 percent of registered vehicles in California and 1 percent of vehicle miles traveled, they account for 10 percent of passenger vehicles' smog-forming emissions.
Motorcycle engines are twice as efficient as automobile engines, so they generally emit less carbon dioxide. But they emit large amounts of nitrogen oxides, which along with hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide are measured by state and federal air quality regulators to determine whether vehicles meet emissions rules.
Here is the full article....not scientific enough for some.....believe it or not.

The police were very tolerant of the driving and noise for a few weeks, but some kept pushing it more and more.

We just wanted the steak. So we found a brand name motel in East Knoxville was way cheap. However, a "gang" of motorcycles with sidecars and long seats started arriving. A group of cyclists were having or going to a get together. Turns out, they were dentists, IIRC. Most cycles were Gold Wings but lots of Harley models and a few others.

There, I wrote it on the internet, so it must be true.

This is my day off so I am not going to research this but, although motorcycles use less gas the pollutants they produce are worse, and you may be using gas for one rider...a car could have 4 or 5 passengers going that same distance.

Why hasn't anyone thought of inventing a laptop case that converts into a portable office so that when a jamoke like me is stuck in a joint like this, he can use the case as a portable work desk?

I don't necessarily have to have the last word...but, it would be rude not to reply or to not give someone closure. And, once I was a teacher....so I believe people can learn from their mistakes

5 or 6 days a week I have about a 20 to 25 minute drive to get to the tennis courts.
On Friday, I had a really slow guy ahead of me - not once but this happened twice!
Driving slow and driving about 30 mph in a 40 zone is bad enough...but, in both cases the slow drivers barely made it through a light that turned yellow.....and I had to stop for a light I should have been able to make. :@
Absolutely no thought about other people.
Same thing happens on Green Left Arrow turns....when the guy in front starts daydreaming or texting!

First chance I got I dropped a gear and got around him really fast. What got me is that checking my mirrors no one that was behind me passed him even though it was a long straight flat stretch of road with no oncoming traffic.

I haven't been in a car dealership since I got the BMW so not sure how auto dealers are doing. Any thoughts?

I almost gave out a war whoop, I was so happy to see it.
Odd how they didn't have enough cans for diet decaf, but they had enough cans for many other flavors--they could have used some cans for Diet decaf. They didn't even have 2 liter plastic bottles of diet decaf until today.

I guess you can say we got lucky with the lumber prices for the flip since we got all that stuff in the early Spring. But we’ll take the high prices into account when we sell. You don’t think we’re going to discount the price because we were lucky, do ya?

This brings me to another question: are those even legal to sit in anymore when car is in motion? Would I go to jail for child endangerment if I had one and let my kids ride in it?

I'm also offended when they go 0 to 60 in 2 minutes while merging onto the freeway.
Lastly, I never see those bike/motorcycle riders on their cell phones while moving.

I puttered around the yard a bit on my bike today, and my son on his. Mine is SO QUIET.

A jump seat is a seat that folds down to sit in.. like in the back of an extended cab pickup, or a troop transport plane.
