    You go to make a right turn in your car, and start to extend your right arm.

    I did that yesterday morning.

    Mark, although I've been conditioned to expect them, please soften the

    And Austins are cars.

  12. You put more miles on your bike than your car each year.

    You can't remember the last time you stopped at a gas station. (For
    that matter, you had no idea the price of gas had gone over $3.)

    You have no idea who makes the "Highlander" or what kind of vehicle it
    is, but you know the differences between "Ultegra" and "Tiagra".

    A friend of mine has a car on which the driver has to control throttle
    (gas if you must), gear change (shift) and brakes all with the right hand.
    Makes any road junction somewhat interesting, so the passenger / riding
    mechanic makes all the signals to other traffic and acts as rearview
    mirror too. At 103 years old one has to make allowances -- and
    that's just the car.
