The folk who live of the banks of the west coast (of the North American Continent) won't bite, of that I can assure you - telling you to 'go fly a kite' was just their way of being friendly

My personal RIDE is a Ford hybrid or a bicycle.

So if you are roaring down the street toward us, we will be sure to give you a WIDE berth.

Let me WADE into the matter of road traffic and declare that roaring motorbikes are my pet hate.

While I don't have a motorbike now, you will oft times see me fade into the distance, while passing slower traffic in my aging VW Camper

I hope your VW Camper is a real (albeit old) article, and not a FAKE.

Flashback to my youth: In about 1970 while riding with friends to a nearby LAKE, I saw a VW camper which had overturned at a curve on a steep hill. Nobody was seriously injured, and we watched them pushing the van back onto it's tires. It immediately started rolling downhill but someone jumped in and prevented a serious crash.

@ bramhall: my VW Camper is most certainly the genuine thing

If the camper van throws a rod, we will arrange a WAKE to mourn it's passing.
