All the best to the young lady, congrats on the new job ..... I have to admit that I have been looking at used Harleys as a third motorcycle ..... usually the road kings, something that looks like the old electra glides with an all clear windshield ... I'm not sure I would like the riding position though, with the feet out in front. But I've also lusted for a test ride on the Pan-am and a road glide too .... Trouble is I don't ride the bikes I have now enough, lol, The weather has been tricky with a lot of hail, and I mangled my leg in a bicycle crash in december, still getting that healed up .... I wear more body armor now on both the bicycles and the RS ..... especially the ankles and knees ....

Thanks. I'm mostly an old Porsche fan and the Gulf livery 917 is one of my favorites.

My mate , a 911 owner, let me drive his old 'whale tail' model (1980's pre water cooled I guess ?) what a machine despite off-set seating/pedal box and his fear of 'backing off' at speed!

My first Le Mans 1984 was to see Jaguars "return to racing" and then I find out it was a Group44 Bob Tullius team from 'across the pond'
They were the pre TWR outfit that sowed the seed for the eventual Jag wins which is sometimes forgotten.

The old pits, terrible french toilets are all gone now, with our son we had three visits with us before his fifth birthday, meeting Derek Bell on the way home, monday at the ferry port.
He was in a Rothmans Porsche 928S and spent quite some time signing autographs, going home after winning the 1987 race which made goood memories..

This year, still watching after 9 hours straight, so much happening, some good driving, some very poor!
