What does the 'P' stand for? I have an answer that comes to mind.
I'm pretty sure it stands for "parking." Bob Costas starts with a B....
Apparently, this Monday is "Second half of the alphabet" day.
Sunrise while walking into work this am.

You'd be shocked how far a rig like that can hurl flames.

I might be looking forward to winter this year. These are both 100+ mph machines.
Black one is a 4 cylinder 2 stroke 750cc and the other is a twin piped 670cc with some other goodies
Drove one of those for the first time up in Norton Shores last winter. All I can say is "ummmm, how are there not more deaths??!?" I can't wait to ride again
Ever seen an Accors with a lift kit? Ah I have now.

I just thought they were noisemakers, didn't realise they were afterburners.
Maybe some of our South African forum members have some pics of the things that people used to fit over there to set fire to carjackers alongside the drivers door.

I think there are quite a few deaths... I was personally acquainted with 3 people who passed on a snowmobile.
Love it! (of course the gear should really be up)
Bit of trivia: The gigantic B36 was so huge because it had to be able to carry the a-bomb of the time the Mark 17 (shown above)
The four bomb bays could carry up to 87,200 pounds (39,600 kg) of bombs, more than 10 times the load carried by the World War II workhorse, the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, and substantially more than the entire B-17's gross weight

In 1957, A B-36 crew accidentally dropped a 15-Megaton Hydrogen Bomb while on approach to an airport in Albuquerque, NM. The bomb's conventional explosives detonated, blowing a large crater in a farmer's field and killing a cow. The bomb was not armed though, so there obviously was not a thermonuclear detonation, which would have resulted in a larger crater and many more dead cows. The US Government compensated the farmer for the damage to his field and the loss of his cow.
