bikes...  combine them all, and they cost about what yours does.

No! Got mine used, so it wasn't as expensive as you think and I sold my car awhile ago for exactly what I paid, and prior to that I drove a jeep that I bought from a rental company for $2000 and it lasted for 4 years.


Did you ever work with Ron Evans? ;-)

No can't say that I have.
