Certainly no argument here...Every time I jump on a bike and I haven't

been on one in awhile, I'm reminded of how slow cars are, even my turbo

car or RX.

OTOH, there is a lot to be said for being able to just jump in and

buckle up, rather than climbing into leathers, boots and helmet...and

I'm just not dumb enough to ride without, though no helmet laws here.
