    +1 on that, but that's looking at it from my point of view.... And at least you don't have a crack addiction, or out buying hookers or something (not saying there is anything wrong with visiting the ol' brothel while riding in Pahrump, NV :lol: )

    But I also say -1 on that, because I know you are a good guy, and have priorities, they may not be the same as mine, but you're a smart guy, so... Follow your heart....

    I think you may have a hard time selling your wife on a race forum, if she doesn't like racing.... But with the right type of photos, you might be able to accomplish such a thing. Having personal experience, I can reassure you that "Sex Sells"..... If you don't succeed here, maybe you can sell her on Craigslist.

    Here's a thought.... Rent your wife out for race weekends.... You can race... She can go with some swingin Dick on a day trip to the butterfly pavilion, followed by a night of polka dancing.... She takes half the money to buy cheese and crackers, and a parking pass.... And you take the other half to pay for your weekend of fun filled racing, with all of your best friends that you now call family.

    Just a thought..... 8)

    Oh... And I voted yes.... If she is a wife worth keeping at all, then she'll think this thread is funny.

    So I'm guessing the correct answer to the poll is "NO"

    I forgot to add I think that the 25k he was asking will get him all square on those 2 numbers added up!

    Yes I am. In fact I think that now more than ever. I've got just the package for you. And i'll even take back my old street bike as partial payment. Think it over.

    yeses

    Who's still marking yes in the poll? In case you missed it, the answer was definitely a" NO" but she'll come back around. I really did think she'd find the humor in it. Imagine someone from here buying awoman who hates motorcycles.

    Jeff- thanks for the craigslist suggestion. I've been getting way more hits there. :? :shock:
