Okay, there's an addendum to the above:
Right after I purchased the Sprint, back in '95, Judie and I hopped on it and rode up through the mountains up north of Ojai California and through central CA. And, while on this road we got stuck behind some large piece of farm equipment goin' REALLY slow for what seemed like mile after mile. And yes, I admit that I got frustrated bein' stuck behind it, and I admit I passed it on a blind curve. And, while I was doin' that, Julie was smackin' me on my back and screamin' at me somethin' like, "WHAT THE **** ARE YOU DOING????"
BUT, extremely lucky for her and me, nobody was comin' the opposite way. Yep, I got away with it.
AND, that taught me a lesson, because I immediately realized how lucky I was that I didn't kill the both of us that day!
(...or totaled my brand new Triumph Sprint...which would have REALLY p*ssed me off!)
