I guess the transition from twin jet engines and Mach 2 capability to underpowered air-cooled VeeDub isn't such an easy one...
LOL I had a similar thing happen in my early bike messenger days. I still had a car then, which I used only on alternate weekends. Translating the "point and squirt" tactics of a bike messenger in downtown gridlock to a Ford Taurus on a controlled access highway is scary. I really had to calm myself down in the car... Love the pic, BTW. Especially the Mickey D sponsorship. Thirty years ago (pre-Tiananmen Square) they'd have been Western corporate devils. Cheers, frank On 6 July, 2015 11:08:33 AM EDT, "Daniel J.
