Crippled Old Biker Bastards society

C.O.B.B. is an elite Society of Crippled Old Biker Bastards and Bitches who have overcome the fear of riding after a crash, and we all know that Crashing Sucks!

The difference is, we are persistent, positive thinking people, who continue to ride after a road casualty.

FACT: We are not a Motorcycle Club, nor do we have intentions of becoming one. We are merely a Society of imperfect people who due to the fault of ourselves, or others, are bound together by the fact that we have “to one degree or another,” had an imperfect riding incident on a motorcycle. There is no way one could or want, by my way of thinking, probate for such a society.

The wall of death

Why Mr Egbert has a lion that loves a drive on the wall of death is a mystery

In the middle of San Diego... is this 2 rut road

Just how many years did it take to get in this condition? Really, how long would you put up with driving down this before either filling in the ruts with free dirt, free lumber, or pay for gravel or cement?

BMW, something about fine engineering.. it escapes me what the catch phrase is

I bet they weren't referring to this bit of engineering accomplistment. Ever heard of hog ring repairs to a plastic rear window? They don't mention it at http://www.bmwgroupna.com/index.asp ... of course, they are the ultimate driving machine... not that I've ever, but no claims on convertible rear window translucency, or ability to take hog ring repairs either!

Laugh it out your nose funny!

Why crash test cars? Motorcycles obviously aren't worth crash testing, and yet a viable transportation means, DOT approved. Go figure

These are the pics to eval for the hall of fame... didn't want to swamp the chief exec's email with photo's I can host here, proudly.

I read this on a comment section, wow.. . thats sad

Here is what would happen if Ford owned Ferrari

Like it did to Aston Martin:

1- Ramp up production quickly without Addressing issues. Example DB7


2- Want a new engine, bring it over from the Ford Taurus. Weld two 3.0 Duratecs together to make a V12.

Thats exactly how the 5.9 V12 from Aston is.


3- See if you can get parts from the ford empire and shove it into Ferrari to cut costs again.

Ford put Miata door handles on the DB9.


4- Take Platform sharing to new heights. Make a Jag out of the F430 platform and make other Ford vehicles out of Ferrari platforms.

XK8 and Vantage are the same.

5- Need a V8 engine for Ferrari? Oh no, don't develop one, bring one over from Ford again.

Such as V8 from Ford going into Vantage.

It's always going to be freaking ridiculous, and nowhere near resonable, if it were up to me: 1st time you are pulled over, warning and you get entered into a database.

2nd offense, 100 dollar fine

3rd offense, 200 dollar fine

4th offense, 400 dollar fine... yup it just went exponential. .. and finally caught up to real fine for first time offenses in the US today. I gave you 3 chances to knock it off, and figure out how to not get caught... real cops don't. Elect me president, all federally subsidised roads get switched to my system.

Say it with me: Double - Double

And sometimes, I just congradulate some for going to the edge, and looking over

When madmen customize. Really, really, odd... but not good
