Well after a couple of months of searching, Kathie and I have found our new wing. It isn't a Cessna however, but the price was right at under $20K.

It has two seats, cruises around 75mph, but has a top speed of 140 mph and does this on less than 2gph...man these new engines are efficient.

Anyway, I know this decision will disappoint many of you, but we have done this kind of flying for years before and truly enjoy it too.

Everyone needs a sabattical now and then.

Well, that thing may have wings, but it ain't gonna cruise at a few thousand feet AGL.

BAH! That's what everyone's been telling me too! I picked out this '05 Suzuki Boulevard a month or so ago.

You go for it Jeff! Ride safe.

Just for kicks, here is my old bike, I actually took this thing up to 160 MPH and it was still pulling! It was supposed to top out around 180.

To quote Royson....:"YYYEEEAAAHHHH Baby!!!!"

Not sure my wife would sit behind me on either of those, however....

I am jealous, however....planes and motorcycles...you are quite spoiled Bryan. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
