My wife and I ride. That’s how we met,in a motorcycle meet up group. We now have four bikes. As I got a little older,and my body broke down a little more,I told my wife I needed to get something more comfortable,a bagger. She immediately said go for it. The only condition was I couldn’t sell my other bike. I really did want to sell it,and she put her foot down and said “absolutely not!” Boy,did I find the needle in the haystack or what?
I'm here for the enthusiasts, not the snobbery
Couple of threads have shown up lately. "Should you be an audiophile if you..." either have a certain type of gear, have a certain amount of money, or don’t make your own.
I personally reject all of that. I’m here for the enthusiasts, and those who suffer. That is, people who are enthusiastic about listening to music via electronics and those who are suffering with problems who need a little help. That’s how I try to build a community.
Also want to point out, again, that this hobby was built by hobbyists and tinkerers. The range included backyard self-electrocuting iconoclasts to scientists in acoustics and electrical engineering. I’m happy to welcome them all.
Laslty, I want to say something about the Porsche metaphor:
1 - All Porsches are ugly. This is an indisputable fact no one wants to talk about and means all debate needs to stop right there.
2 - Any motorcycle is more fun and exciting than any car.
Thank you for reading this and I’m glad I had a chance to nip these conversations in the bud. << evil troll laugh >>
