I won a ROADRACING WORLD Hat!

Torch's New Hat

I got an email the other day from ROADRACING WORLD stating that I had won a free hat for taking an on-line poll. There were a couple choices so I picked out the one I wanted and it arrived in the mail just the other day. ROADRACING WORLD is one of my favorite sites for motorcycle racing news. The photo of the hat is from their On line Store where you can purchase your own, along with other items of interest. They publish a very nice magazine all about motorcycle racing as well, which I do not presently $ubscribe to. Any way, I just wanted to give ROADRACING WORLD a shout out and say, "Thank you!"

MotoGP racing at Le Mans will be on later today & you can bet I will be watching either live or recording to watch later in case something comes up. I have not been posting as much lately because I've been busy with a new job. It's actually the same job with a different company.

Ride on,
Torch

The accident

A woman is driving through an intersection and gets into an accident with a biker. It's a pretty bad one. She claimed she didn't see him.
His bike is toast and her car is also hurt pretty badly. Amazingly neither of them is physically injured; just his leathers and her pride.

God works in mysterious ways.

After they get their wits about them, the biker starts cursing about people not watching out for motorcyclists.

Trying to lighten up his mood and the intense atmosphere the accident has created, the woman says, "WOW,
just look at my car and your bike! So much damage but yet both you and I are completely unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should be friends and live in peace for the rest of our days."

The biker replies, "Oh yes, I agree completely, this must be a sign from God!
But you're still at fault. "

The woman continues, "And look at this, here's another miracle. My car's front end is completely demolished but this bottle of wine didn't break
.
Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune."

The biker nods his head in agreement, proceeds to take the wine from the woman, opens it for her and say's "Here, out of politeness, I'm going to let you have the first drink, even though you are still at fault".

The woman takes the bottle, drinks about half and hands it back to the man.

The biker puts the cap back on and the woman asks, "Aren't you having any?"

The biker replies, "No. I think I'll just wait for the police..."
