In my nighttime rounds about the city, I’ve encountered the Motorhome Bike more than once.  It’s almost always been parked over in Southeast, but I’ve seen the guy drive it around once or twice.  Aesthetically it didn’t really do anything for me, but to each their own, you know?  Anyway, I guess it was torn […]

This week marks the fourth anniversary of the purchase of my current car.  “Whip” as the kids say.  It’s a 2001 Honda Civic and it’s fan-freaking-tastic.  When I got it, it had these 17″ white rims on it from the previous owner.  A year of “nice wheels” from the under-18 crowd convinced me to hit […]
