About Ben Carson? Go for it. I merely think that his status as the butt
of jokes is well deserved.

No, but my wife has - when she wasn't on her own bike.

No, we never got to Africa. Did most of Europe though.

I haven't taken what would be considered a *long* motorcycle ride since
the 1960s, when I drove my Honda from Milford, Connecticut, to Kansas,
around 1250 miles if memory serves, but I took five or six days to do
it, because I was taking a bunch of short side trips off the main route.
It was a "fun" ride for me. The longest rides I've taken in recent years
were under 250 miles. Spending all day on a motorcycle has no more
appeal to me than spending the night in a towable motel room after
driving all day in a pick-me-up truck towing it.

So what 249 mile rides have you done on that Ducati?
--


I didn't say they were 249 mile rides, I said they were under 250 miles.

I've ridden to Virginia Beach, Dover, Ocean City, Purcellville, and a
few other places. I prefer state highways, whenever possible, to the big
interstates. Lower speeds, usually less traffic, fewer big trucks, et
cetera.

On the Ducati? Or in the 4Runner?
--



The 4Runner is moving on after 225,000 mostly carefree miles. For the
last year, I've only been using it "locally" to pick up bags of mulch,
or to take trashbags up to the dump. It's still in good shape,
considering its age and mileage, and we're donating it to a good cause.

You've ridden the Ducati to Virginia Beach, Dover, etc?

How the heck did you put more than 225 thousand miles on that vehicle?
You have often stated how you prefer to take public transportation and
you don't drive anywhere for trips, etc.

Last I knew you had a Ford Ranger "Splash" or whatever they were called.

My truck is almost 8 model years old (2008) and it has just over 33,000
miles on it.


Remember to whom you're talking. Think owls, barns, Ducatis, Vietnam, etc.

"Ridden" typically does not apply to cars.

I've "ridden" my 4Runner to Virginia Beach? Naw, I wouldn't say or write
that.

I'll be sure to point it out the next time you do, and then you can
channel Ben Carson in your response.
