Janko in a Jar

I never thought I will say this all in one sentence. My >50y father came to my sons 2y birthday party with his 600cc Honda bike, and left it here for a while (it was night and cold when we were done) .

And I am not complaining, I luckily had a business meeting today and of course I didn’t use the car to get there. If anyone thinks to meet with me he/she is very welcome for the next few days, I finally have the time for meetings!

I had an enduro (off-road/touring) bike when I was too young to have a car, but then motorcycles started looking impractical and quite dangerous too me. Well but I have to admit now (not that I do it because of danger), as with kayak, the more dangerous it is the more alive you feel and I didn’t feel as alive as today in a year. And I wasn’t speeding too-much but sitting on a little bike that has more horse power than my previous 1.6cc car, feeling the air the surroundings and the road directly.. it’s just 10x more involved than “couching” in a car.
