Yeah, or a swag of Apple shares.

Yes, indeed. It took about a mile to get up to 50mph for a start. We had a road that ran down the side of the airport tat went straight onto a rocky riverbed. Great place for guns, boozing, chainsaws, parties and trail bike riding as a school boy. They used to dig it up a bit to get rocks to make roads so we always had launching ramps for the trail bikes. Me being a bit innovative used to get the VW up to speed up down the road and then hit it trail bike style.
