Maserati Quattroporte Limousine!

Did anyone ever notice that the limo in The Running Man is a Quattroporte?

Bumper cars at 3000'

Seen on the way up Mt. Diablo, above 3000', what, how, why?


Ural, catching up with the 1940's

Ирбитский мотоциклетный завод
1940's German design (BMW R71), Russian craftsmanship, made just for you and your significant sidecar-other. With suspension like that, who needs roads?

1970's Honda CB750 SuperSport

These bikes are great fun to ride, one of the first inline high-rev'ing fours, they sound great, handle pretty well, and have a lot of power for the day. I also had a CB550 (non-SuperSport) that I rode around on for awhile in college and then years later sold back to the original owner. The green-faced gauges are one of my favorite accents from these original bikes.

New Year's Day anti-football rally

Lots of cool cars at the anti-football rally (note: you don't actually have to dislike football to take part). One day, maybe an exotic Italian family hauler?

1954-1965 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider

What does the 1600 on the back mean? I thought these engines were only the 1.3L. In Berkeley, near Telegraph and Parker with just a little love-tap in the front.
