Motorcycles. All 3 of them. I miss them.
i live in car dependent America, my motorcycle have saved me every time my car is waiting for repair parts, so i don't miss work, and when riding downtown, where parking is a headache. So i see it with a more utilitarian eye
Motorcycles and mopeds are amazing in urban areas that haven't built up public transit, honestly. They can be crazy efficient, have a ton of electric options now, and give people the range and speed to use existing infrastructure and not need dedicated lanes/shallow grades like bicycles.
I've not owned one since I grew up in a rural area and I'm not suicidal enough to ride one on a 65mph highway. but am planning to move to an urban area in a few months, I'll probably get one for going downtown.
I find driving two wheeled vehicles in cities scarier than on the highways., and stopped riding them when it seemed like it was more dangerous that it was worth because of all the other terrible drivers.
I'm at 7 at the moment...
Drag car...
Tens of thousands of dollars for 3 or 4 trips to the track a year.
And I'm itching to build another.
