A big hello from New Mexico

Yeah, this is actually like a test to see how long tires last with a friction... if it's a long time then I might just consider going long distance with a friction drive! Yeah I think my setup will really fit my need for ese of installation and I wont have to worry about the engine falling apart on me.

I'm totally planning on trying out all the other types of drives tho. You know, someday! There are just so many great ideas on this site. Like, the one idea where its that kit which turns your bike into a tandem, then you can attach the motor to that, making it a pusher+extra seat, I mean omg thats so awesome! I really wanna do that one. maybe try out the GEBE with that one. (I kinda see myself w/ a girl on that tandem thing, hey dreams are good right lol) To be perfectly honest, and yeah I know I'm kinda sticking my neck out here, but I hate driving. It really freaks me out, I just cant handle it. That's why I'm so excited about mb's because honestly I dont ever see myself driving. Maybe someday, I sort of want to become an electrician (thinking about it, working for the power company) and I would need a drivers license for that, not to mention it would be a big old truck. omg!

One thing about the economy and gas and all that is that being anti-car (yes I'm sorry I am, just one of those bikers u see angry at all the cars, I shouldnt be tho everyones different etc.) isn't seen as such a bad thing these days. And honestly, with insurance, and gas, and repairs and all that. It just doesn't seem worth it to me o_O

The only thing I would want a car for is fishing... and man is it so tempting to get one just for that!

I'm gunna try to ride up to my fishing spot first tho, that will be a really good test. If I can get a bike up there then I'm set lol. Sucks I have been asking all my friends with cars for rides to go fishing, none of them want to lazy mfers! I have used almost all the options I can to get up there except renting a car (not worth it) or getting my own vehicle. :p
 
Hey CowNose,
Also like the idea of long distance travel on my MB. Bluegoatwoods makes an important point about not generating income while on the road, not to mention the added expense of a chase van; though it would save money camping out instead of motels. I've always wanted to kayak in the Sea of Cortez, so it's the southern route for me complete with custom kayak trailer. 40 days and 40 nights ought to do it from SC to San Diego. I'll meet you in Tucson.
