My new fascination: Sachs Madass
Please note: This post was written some time ago (17 years ago). My perspectives, knowledge, and opinions may have evolved significantly since then. While the content might still offer valuable insights, I encourage readers to consider it in the context of its publication date.
I don't know if it has something to do with the motorcycle gas that runs in my blood (a lot of my relatives are "bikers") or if it is my dream of looking and being like madmax. Whatever it is - I really like how the Sachs Madass looks. Today at lunch we were walking down Broadway and saw one locked up. It looks insane. It seems to be the melding of a custom scooter, a moped and a homemade motorcycle. It would be an amazing way to get around town during Chicago summers. Too bad summer is ending so soon - I would be tempted to use some adsense monies to scoop one up (although hiromi would probably want one too - then we would be the baddest assed scooter gang who is also married and really awesome).
If you are really bored, check out my buddy hollywood holt's site and especially his video about mopeds.
