My (potential) new ride
Well as of Monday, I may be cruising around town on this:
Click here for specs (If I get it, I'll actually be buying the R5):
http://www.cobrasales.com/303r.htm
What do you think?? Should I go for it or not??
99% of my driving is in town only, not on highways or for long distances. I've been riding my bike...but that is boring and not fun for me. I thought this would be more enjoyable, and more economical than driving my truck.

We dallied under
Vine maples and sapling alders
Searched for lady slippers
But instead
Found blackberry riots and
Desiccated branches
An old skid road
Brought ghost ferns and
Hollows filled with
Skunk cabbage
While waves wrapped
Intricate lacings of weeds
'Round mule spinners
His cyanotic eyes
Were hard enough to make
The sun turn tail and
Tender enough to attract me
To his world of illusion
