I was there a few years ago.... they told us the bike tour was only 40 mins from the pier to the other side of the bridge.... took us 3 fucking hours.... i was so tired i had to take the ferry back
Not usually one to do the personalized plate. Besides stating the obvious, there is a much more profound reason I did this.
Back in 1994 when I brought my Vista Cruiser home I went in to get my wife (Cindi) to come check it out. What followed went something like this:
Me: What do you think?
Cindi (in a tone of voice somewhere between disgust and "are you crazy"): It's a station wagon.
Me: Yeah, isn't it cool?
Cindi (In a more disgusted and disdainful tone): It's a STATION WAGON.
Me: Yeah, it's got a big block, 4 barrel and dual exhaust. It will be a really cool hot rod wagon someday.
Cindi (in a raised tone of voice): My parents drove Station Wagons and they were anything but cool.
I promised her I would build a wagon that would be cool and change her opinion of Station Wagons. She said, "We'll see" and went back into the house.
Turns out the Vista Cruiser is her favorite of all the cars I've ever done. She loves talking to people about it at cars shows, the gas station or wherever.
And now in 2020 her daily driver is a "Station Wagon" How ironic is that.
Here are a few pics of the Vista Cruiser 1994 and 2020. 1994 a few months after I bought it January 2020

Love the story.
I sometimes feel like National Lampoon's Vacation played a big part in unfairly stigmatizing wagons.

Thanks. Cindi reminded me that I didn't mention to her that I was going to buy the Vista. I think I was in "easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission" mode at the time. I pulled the same stunt a few more times. Then she told me I'd be sleeping in the next car I brought home without talking to her.
You should add the spoiler tag so we don't have to look at it
They always say to let a radical new look grow on you...sorta like the Bangled 5er and the BMW X6. I dunno man, only thing that'll grow on me regarding its look is my dislike for it.
I'm sure it'll drive great but when you have performance-oriented alternatives offered by Merc and Audi...I just don't see how you would consider that IF (IF IF IF) BMW is insane enough to apply that nostril to the M3 Touring.
i saw that picture last week.. didnt wanna post cuz it is too ugly .... u went to far Yumcha...
But with everything ive heard... G80 M3/4 will be very very very goood.
the AWD model will probably be faster than the M5.... considering how fast X3M is already.

, he probably had to also have his Mom, GF, sister, BiL, and Dad on the bike too. You try riding and pedaling with so many people on the bike.
