Sid, I don't deal much with OK foreign but Marvin works there as a hobby. If you ever need something call him and he will treat you right. He will be at breakfast tomorrow.

Noah, I don't know what road this is. The first part I thought was near where Deckar and Westlake Blvd meet, but then the final part looks like Encinal. I think Encinal the one where you go to the left at the fork in Mulholland as you head to the ocean, and Mulholland continues if you go to the right, so that would mean that was just the rest of Mulholland? It looks like they come out on PCH.

I don't get out into the canyons as much as I should. Just my few known roads.

Deckar is too tight for me, even when I am driving alone. Maybe If I knew when the blind 15mph turns were really blind 10mph turns I would feel better. First gear even seemed too fast. That was in the BMW I think.

no fun.

sid, my test was in a parking lot with cones. one of the tests was to do a slalom and you couldn't put your feet down. with that heavy and long bike, it was lock to lock on the steering. then, he wanted me to take off 'as fast as i could' and stop when he waved his arm down. i asked him, 'seriously. you want me to go as fast as i can and then stop? on this bike?' 'yep' 'ok.' you should have seen the look on his face when i took off.... priceless.

In OK the riding test, they clip a radio speaker to your collar and tell you where to turn and they follow you.... After a few blocks the radio quit working, the examiner told me to drive back to the station, and he gave me a perfect score!
hehe.
Me too.
Virago.

I thought he dealt with car sales, not parts. And the Porsche stuff is split off in a seperate building.

Besides, if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. In this case, right entails being cautious and aware.

Patience for growing veg, Yes.
