Re: [ST] Anti Motorcycle Rhetoric

["Young, Mike" <myoung@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm with Jonathon here. As a rower (sculler actually) who spends lots of
time on a mixed use water way in a boat that's 27 feet long, 11 inches
wide, and weighs 35 pounds I'm completely familiar with the corporate
exec who has more boat than brains, and flat doesn't care about anyone
but himself. They are so busy trying to impress their trophy girlfriend,
old school buddy, self... what ever... that they pose what amounts to a
mortal danger to the rest of the community. I don't want to get off on a
rant here, but....

"Charles M. Denny Jr., a retired corporate executive, lives in
Minneapolis."
Poor retired corporate executive no longer gets to ride around in his
chauffered limo and is now exposed to the outside world!!!

I don't think this poor bast*%d has any fun in his life - do you???  He
obviously is the type of person that would always say =3D "not in my
neighborhood"  but probably would have no problem creating a big f-ning
wake
with his yacht and swamping the fisherman in his kayak (who would have
the
right of way!!!)

Treat yourself to this lovely bit of narrowly focused drivel that made
the
headline on the front of the Op. Ex. section in the Sunday Minneapolis
Star
Tribune.  Apparently motorcycles are a threat to his "high quality of
urban
life".

My favorite bit is "...motorcycles are optional and totally
unnecessary....".

What a wanker!

While he qualifies that some motorcycles are quiet, he proposes a total
ban
of all motorcycles on parkways (?).  

Freakin rebel without a cause.
