I need to read this again . There are a lot of my favorite books that require a reread to find out this book has changed or I have ?

It is actually funny that quite a few in this Guzzi forum have read Zen and the art... and also Lord of the ring past by as a read.

I don't really like Honda bikes. Too sterile. But I started on a Honda CT 90 on the farm when I was about 15. You meet the nicest people on a Honda.

That is a good remark. I think, I will do this too.

There was this boy , Johnny Mariner , he must've been in the 1,000,000 mi. club riding a CT70 in his yard . It had slick (no tread) tires and a Sonic Tune pipe .
