With my Royal Enfield
motorcycle after
I "restored" it (before is here) . In spite of its 1955 appearence, it is a model 2000,
manufactured in Madras, India, and I bought it wrecked on ebay in 2004. And I'm not an amateur. I have a diploma in motorcycle mechanics from a correspondence
school (!). I also have a diploma in radio and TV
repair (black and white and color!!). If you ever wondered why do people
fall in love with antique British motorcycles read this. I also have a more modern bike.
Running
the Country Music Marathon
in Nashville, TN. I have ran eleven marathons (for those in Argentina, a
marathon is a 26.2 mile (42km) race) since I started in February 2005 with the New Orleans Marathon. My best time up to now was 5:51 in Phoenix, AZ.
You can see the list of marathons I've run
here.
Some people may debate if with such horribly slow times I'm actually running
at all, but hey, I only finished last once (Patriot's run). My goal is to do
50 marathons in the 50 US states. When I'm done with that? We'll see..
Rose grower? Even more inappropriate a term than runner, given my dismal
record. You see, in Louisiana everything grows gigantically, except
whatever I plant. By sheer insistence, plating several new roses every
year, I've finally got a couple that more or less look reasonable...
