Well, he did die racing. That proves the artist's depiction.

Unfortunately, Nev, what the rest of the world thinks, doesn't matter at all. Neither does what the people of his country think, either. Meantime, what he (and all those under him) DOES, is affecting a lot of people the world over. There is no win-win outcome. For every win, someone, somewhere, is losing. And that, my friend, IS 'The Art of The Deal'. P.S. yes, that is Capitalism as practiced in USofA.

This image isn't mine but it is taken from a better angle. Also, when a motorcyle is cornering, the rider holds the front wheel a bit away from the direction of the turn. That is counter intuitive, but the artist seems to have captured that.

In a lot of racing, the rider slides his knee almost along the ground and sits a bit on the low side. I think it's a accurate depiction of Ken Blake's cornering style.

I once had a 28 Studebaker. But back then raising a family was more important than playing cars. Last week a mate sent me this pic of one. On farcbook marketplace - complete & in running condition - too good to restore.

As a party in opposition, they are suspiciously quiet. It's not as if the current ruling mob aren't giving enough mud to sling. I'm starting to think the oligarcs are bribing the Democrats to STFU.

Is DC The Swamp of America?

In my prime.... Zero debt. Low body fat percentage. Fluid balance perfect. Nutrition excellent. Cholestorol low. Mental health balanced. Zero alcohol, excellent hydration. This was my peak. I was eight years old.

Unlike our politics , The function of a motorcycle is a simple action/reaction eqyation. An honest tangible benefitial response to every twist of the RH grip.

Even when I was on L plates, I believed that. And that was so 'last century'. And YES! As long as you come home to Australia.

And yet, the accuracy of the art captured the whole racing motorcycle and rider.

Jerry for Pres! Jerry for Pres! Oh, wait, don't we already have some Jerryatric's in government?

He can name his end of it. But it still doesn't win his tariff tantrum with the Canuks

I look forward to suffering such delightful political boredom.

We live in hope, but may die in despair.
