Honestly no matter what, I going to have to man up soon. The only question is when. If I can put it off till Friday, I think that would be best, but if I get caught before then it's out of my hands. I've already gone way past the point of no return.
I want a Stealth Bomber, lord help me.

Try clothes pins and playing cards in the spokes. That'll make it sound like it has a real engine on it. Maybe she won't notice, for a few days anyway. (until the cards wear out).

Ha! Did you ever do dual cards, one on each chain stay, like I used to do, 2door?
I always though it sounded more like a Harley that way.

Balloons worked good too. You had to use those long ones, not round ones. Blow them up about half way and tied each end to the chain stay or front fork and wind them around so they were against the spokes. Four balloons and it sounded like a Harley for sure. Much better than playing cards.

i remember them day's with my schwinn stingray. every kids dream was to have a motorized bicycle. dang took over 50 years but this kids dreams came true
When I was in second grade I had one of these. it was one of my favorite all time toys. As a matter of fact I wore the first one out, and got another one. I loved that thing in my bicycle. What a surprise where I ended up huh.

Thanks, no worries. I'm well aware how dangerous riding is, and I never resent anyone reminding me.
This is Buffy right before we married in 1975. 2 seconds after we were married the first thing out of her mouth was "I don't think a married man should ride a motorcycle???? WTF."
That's when it all started.
Oh what a tangled web we weave,
When first we practice to deceive!
I'm not practicing, I'm using highly honed skills I've developed over decades. It's all her fault lol.

Nice Norton Baby!
You know you're a biker when you see the bike before the woman.
I was lucky. My wife's first husband rode bikes. She liked them.

Yes that is a lovely Norton 
As a woman I have to give Buffy a red card though. It's bad form to try using marriage as a means to stop your partner from doing something they love;- AND especially so if it was known about BEFORE getting married.

Thank you, you got that right. We've known each other since 6th grade, and I'd already been riding 7 years when we got married. She didn't like riding, but she figured she would change me lol.Yes that is a lovely Norton

Oh Yeah good looking women you got there. Looks like a keeper. For Sure. Especially if'n she lets you keep the bike lol.
Nice crate! Damn, that crate is worth 10 grand.

My former wife told me the day after we were married that it was her or the sports car but one of them was going. Lord, I still miss that car. Her, not at all.
