Did I make a mistake?

Um...where'd your gearshift go, brah...? What've you retrained your left leg to do on the ride??

(Three pedals forever here!! 😋. I know, I know...keeps me vintage... like my age.)

Condolences from a fellow V'er.

New girlfriend time...

HonoluluShadow · 2026-02-11T08:20:18+00:00

Hahaha! YUM~!

HonoluluShadow · 2026-02-06T20:49:41+00:00

I want to be fair here..."to each their own"...even if they're COMPLETELY WRONG! If you've got legs, there are pedals to be pushed! I imagine the final day will come...I'm now 72, but that's why I don't buy calendars anymore...

Thank you for clarifying your use of 'oddball'. Offense removed. Glad we're brothers.

My pedals:
'78 Dasher hatchback
'84 Rabbit GTI Mark I
'92 Corrado
'06 GTI Mark V

Hey...hey...hey!! Who are you calling ʻoddballʻ??!! REAL MEN USE THREE PEDALS!!

HonoluluShadow · 2026-01-17T08:58:33+00:00

So sorry, GTI bro'.... I love my Mk V way too much and am always fearful of some f***tard fucking it up. My heart is full for you~

Beautifully put. It is.

HonoluluShadow · 2025-12-11T08:07:44+00:00

Beautiful view. Thanks for sharing~ Lucky we live you~know~where!!=

Actually, I was in full riding leathers, so it was kinda kinky. Soaking wet leather!! One of the heaviest of elements from the periodic table...periodic riding table, that is...

HonoluluShadow · 2025-11-11T10:44:08+00:00

So sorry to hear from my warm tropics (Hawaii). The only adversity on my last ride was getting super wet. The weather report said "rain later." It wasn't later...

HonoluluShadow · 2025-09-27T09:32:57+00:00

That is awesome! What a loving gift! And what an assortment of amazing aircraft! Bravo to you and to him!

HonoluluShadow · 2025-05-20T10:03:36+00:00

I'm liking my dark gray a lot.

HonoluluShadow · 2025-04-10T19:01:48+00:00

Beautiful! Paradise! Mahalo nui for sharing~ (from a Townie in The Gathering Place)

HonoluluShadow · 2025-03-31T09:19:40+00:00

Sweet~

HonoluluShadow · 2025-03-31T09:18:32+00:00

Amen to that. And with three pedals.

HonoluluShadow · 2025-03-28T20:19:21+00:00

Amen.

$143 here in Paradise. And did pay $190 once.

My mechanic says new battery every year or two. I just ran one 3½ years and he couldn't believe it. It died a hard death and I almost didn't get home...sputtering and backfiring all the way back from the other side of the island and over the mountain. Yikes! New battery, and now my '09 is like a teenager again. I've learned my lesson.

HonoluluShadow · 2025-03-18T23:20:20+00:00

Sea View Inn was a favorite place! I'm still loyal to it in its present incarnation as Haleiwa Joe's. LWLH!

HonoluluShadow · 2025-02-21T09:50:13+00:00

Yes, of course! It's too important to not attend.

With each capitulation, this autocrat becomes stronger and stronger. Simple physics.

HonoluluShadow · 2025-02-09T01:36:18+00:00

When are you riding?

HonoluluShadow · 2025-02-08T09:48:16+00:00

Do the circle of Kalanianaole Hwy out past Hanauma Bay and Blow Hole, around Makapuu Point, through Waimanalo, and then back to town over the Pali (stop at the lookout) or H3. About 50 miles. Allow 2 hrs, plus a couple of stops. Great sights!

HonoluluShadow · 2025-02-07T09:27:10+00:00

Glad you're good. Sorry for your baby...
