and if memory serves me well Lucas also concocted other automotive delights such as the diabolical fuel injection system seen on the Triumph 2500PI and TR6's amongst others. Rover at least had the good sense to stick with SU carbies for quite some time longer...1 point

when i was younger i wanted to fly all of the; swooping, climbing, banking, wind in the face freedom appealed but top gun never happened and cessnas + commercial aviation seemed very constrained however motorcycling ended up being the best source of those vitamins currently enjoying the back roads1 point

about 25 years ago i read a book all about Chernobyl. about the first half of the book ran through the ins and outs of nuclear power stations and i recall that there were different types/methods used but some of the (earlier?) types needed 450 years of being fully manned after they were de-commissioned to prevent a meltdown... I'm sure the modern ones will be a lot better but who wants to let that gennie out of the bottle1 point

I've owned something like 30 or more motorbikes, I am not sure what the attraction is but it's not too much of a stretch to imagine that there is something similar in the physical sensations to sailing. Whatever it is, there is some kind of magic that happens on two wheels that's as addictive as sailing.1 point

if we were big enough for nuclear, I wouldn't look back. Make those atoms do a decent days work is my opinion. Cleaner than coal, more reliable that solar and wind, smaller footprint than hydro.1 point

they would here if it looked like this: They are freakin' amazing ot ride in. 300kph, smooth as. And when an express blows through a regional station at 180kph or more you feel the pressure wave before you hear it. Amazeballs. https://youtu.be/Cm6TLNitR0M1 point
