full leathers and all the rest of the gear... some bruises, maybe even an ego, as long as there's no oncoming traffic, this one might be ok

Sun wheels or tough wheels if I recall...never had them on my bikes. Although I did use Spin, Specialized and Zipp wheels on my TT bikes in the early 90's.

I know that car, that's the 928 test mule. They cut and widened the golf, then threw in 928 running gear so they could run around germany testing it without drawing attention to themselves...
