Like I say, other bikes have riders, KLR's have pilots. It's not a "Joy Ride", it's a "Check Flight"

I wonder if that may have played a role. Maybe depression or suicidal thoughts. Seems like a number of these types have been having bad and early endings to their lives lately.

Those that aren't, all the time, are 20%-33.3% of the time, anyway.You can see it out on the road every day. (in Massachusetts anyway) You should see the idiots that kill or seriously injure themselves and their families (footnote: ref: C. Darwin) out on the water in boats. KLRiding across a desert is like sailing single-handed across an ocean. Any one of a couple million stupid little mistakes could have fatal results. Look at the guys who build and fly their own ultralight airplanes. You either got to have some of the the biggest cojones out there or really really pay careful attention to all those little things that could ring your bell. Just think, a slight power sag on take-off might be all it would take. It's called "experience" ,the more you've got, the more YOU KNOW what some of the crucial requirements are and what problems could be encountered. I look at riding like flying but low all the time. In the desert you've pretty much had it, if you don't even think far enough ahead to save your LIFE. I'd at least have the wifey follow me with a Hummer , some cold beer, and a satellite phone to call the heli. -- charlie.... trying to get down into the 20s. ----- Original Message ----- From: "albatrossklr" To: Sent: Wednesday, September 10, 2008 12:19 PM Subject: [DSN_KLR650] NKLR tanner > Each day we make choices; some of us make mistakes. > > > albatross [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
