Love It!! How TRUE!!

[DieHard the Hunter]

That’s a keeper! Wonderful! Clever!

PING

How’s this for a nifty ride?

[B-Chan]

Very cool.

What would be even cooler would be if each of the cycles was an actual, functioning circuit of some kind...

[SlightOfTongue]

How this great country of ours, with its innovative minds, could ever fail, is beyond my imagination.

Oops! I just remembered. We still have that Lamestream Driveby Press enabling the America-hating crowd. :>(

Nevermind. Disregard my first comment.

(Ha. You’re assuming ANY circuit can ever be “actual” and “functioning” at the same time. Must be an electronics engineer.)

The first one is a BMW (opposed engine). The second one is a Harley (distinctive V-engine). What’s the third one?

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

I guess mechanical engineers are smokers.
Some of the parts came from butane lighters.

“The first one is a BMW (opposed engine). The second one is a Harley (distinctive V-engine). What’s the third one?”

A Triumph.

A Triumph.

I should have noticed the dead headlamp and improvised after market repairs.

I've seen one at a Motorcycle Repair Facility in which the wheels were bearings; they would actually roll.

But I don't think even Ralph S. Mouse could have ridden it.

Lucas, Prince of Darkness.

I think I’d feel a little cramped on it. ;-)

[James C. Bennett]

Enfield?

[Robert A Cook PE]

Enfield?

Nah.

Riddle:

Q: Do you know how to recognize an extroverted engineer from one who is not?
A: The extroverted one stares down at your shoes

LOL! Probably the Gospel Truth, too. I bet you ride a Harley Fat-Boy!

(I shall, one day soon. I am in the midst of my midlife crisis. Step one was to become a Freemason and to take my Third Degree — that was a few years ago now. Step Two to become a Guardian Angel as well — four years since. Step Three is to become a Biker, to round it all off to a Trifecta: that ambition is now about due, any day now. A nasty little 250 cc rice burner for six months to qualify for my motorbike license and to learn the skills, and then a crimson-and-chrome Harley Fat-Boy awaits...)
