cool story, but not true. That bike's about 35-40 years too new to have been around before WWI
This is the real story.

In Rotterdam they also have the cube houses, when I lived there I actually went to check one out that was for sale.

was remarkably affordable for Rotterdam, but its also VERY small and impractical.
normal furniture does not have any place in those cubes.
The floor space is very limited, they feel like bigger inside, but in practice they are more like a small studio to live in..due to the angled walls.
The location wasn't all that great , Would have been more interesting if it was like in a natural environment with trees aroudn it and some views..
The lack of garage was the final nail in that coffin and didn't go for it

Thanks for posting. It's important to check your sources before posting something as true; a lost art these days, it seems.

See that a lot in So Cal - usually the 5 or the 15 headed south to Mexico. They reuse and recycle everything!

A 2009 visit to the Winternationals as my daughter was friends with the driver's granddaughter:

You'd think a psychology PhD candidate would be writing a thesis on these sort of folks. I've got to assume these body mod folks that go to the insane extremes have some serious issues. WTF.
"Diablo Prado" from Brazil - nose removed, ears removed, ring finger(s) removed, tongue split, plus whatever else...

Yep.

Diablo Prado and the Black Alien Project.
There are a bunch of extreme body mod folks out there. Some are more extreme than others.

Hey, is my new garage a little overdone? I wanted a nice space to keep my new Pagani.




Pad welded itself to the caliper piston, melted the boots on the tie rods, and caused the tire to rupture, all from the heat

Nevermind

Any Pagani Zonda is a rare thing. The Zonda HP Barchetta, a one-of-three project completed four years after the Zonda's original production run, is much rarer still. The cars were rumored to cost $15 million when new, but only two actually reached the public; the third was for Horacio Pagani himself. It is the final and ultimate Zonda, making it all the more alarming that one Zonda HP Barchetta owner crashed his in Zagreb, Croatia earlier this week.

LOL! Not just no, but hell, no. I wouldn't walk under that hammock.

I saw what I think was someone resting their foot on the brake pedal while tooling down the interstate at 80 yesterday. I doubt they got that hot, but it can't have been a good thing.

I'm not sure what being amphibious has to do with pitching with both arms, but I hear that he's VERY popular with the ladies.

Hopefully Glen doesn't get offended that I called out a twittler he copied.
