Lottery stimulated Moto Fantasies
Posted: Thu Feb 19, 2015 4:50 am
If you suddenly became very wealthy, how would that impact your motorcycle riding?
What bikes would you have in your dream garage?
What kind of riding would you do?
For myself, the first thing I would do would be to spend a lot of time going to various track schools and taking other motorcycle training courses. I would spend a bunch of time on the track working on skills and just riding track days for joy of riding fast in a safe, controlled environment. I would also spend a lot of time learning how to ride on dirt. I would like to learn how to wrench. Perhaps I would undertake a course of study at MMI.
What would I have in my dream garage?
Moto Guzzi V7 Special II
Yamaha Super Tenere x 2
MV Agusta F4RR
Husgvarna FE 501
After investing heavily in improving my riding skills, I would just get on the a Super Tenere and go everywhere. I would go camping in national parks all over the United States and Canada, and I would love to tour in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and anywhere else that would become of interest. The biggest challenge would be to get Mrs. Hanson on the back of my bike so that I could share all of that adventure with the most important person in my life.
If I had that kind of money, I would also do a lot of rally riding with the idea of eventually riding in the IBR.
I would get into better shape, exercise more and loose some weight.
After thinking about this, I have one last question. How many of your Moto Fantasies can you make come true even if you don't win the lottery?
I know that even without a lot of money I can accomplish a lot of the things I would like to do with respect to motorcycling. If I eat less to drop some pounds, that will even save me some money that can go into the gas tank.
Safe Travels,
Richard
