The 2007 Milan Bike Show

[teerex51]

The EICMA Bike Show ended a week a ago and I was unable to visit it as I was in the Far East on business.

When I came back learning of Andrew's passing made me so dejected I did not really care to post the photos my buddies had taken in Milan.

But life goes on and there's no better way to celebrate life than to show the things that make our hearts beat faster: motorbikes.

I would not be entirely honest if I didn't confess the following pictures have been selected with more than motorbikes in mind. So sue me...

Pictures are self explanatory. I'm not going to caption them like: "this is a new Suzuki" or some such platitudes. As if you gave a damn about the bike :lol: Some pics are a bit grainy, but the very same consideration applies.

Doesn't having to run around and protect your sisters (and cousins) keep you a bit tired?

And nobody mentioned the "maintenance costs".... :dribble:

I don't have that large a family. I've had to farm out some of the work.

(The most observant among you will have noticed by now that most of the girls don't look like me at all).

But I still call them "seesters" and help out in the dressing room as much as I can

PS: Dang, my drool cup's full again :dribble:

Believe it or not, I'm starting to see this, uh, "outfit" at telecoms shows now too. Nokia turned a girl into a mobile phone last year. (Interesting button placement, but that's beside the point.) My only question is whether the guy that came up with this concept for Yamaha was thinking outside the box, or in it...??

Oh sure...I'm betting she'd never leave the house in THAT outfit. :dribble: AAnnnddd, there is the issue of the survival of her "tailor". :blink:

 

[teerex51]

Truth be told, I have no recollection of posting those pics back then :huh:

But I clearly remember painting the girls for the Bike Show. You will notice that my hand shook in certain areas and I apologize if that spoiled your viewing pleasure. (It did not detract from mine a bit, though :dribble: :dribble: :dribble: )
