The most unlikely day at Owl Farm
By Brenda Buttner
Memo to me:
You want to get a bill for $10,000, the approximate price of replacing a 900 SuperSport should it end up bearing the brand of HST.
You hope to hand over your keys to Cycle World's garage, the toy box my 31-year-old juvenile side reveled in, picking out a different fancy, fun two-wheeler to ride home each day.
Conclusion: Forget this crazy idea.
Two days later, off went a letter addressed to Hunter S. Thompson, The Owl Farm, Aspen, Colorado, offering the use of a Ducati SuperSport for a month, along with the invitation to write about his experience in any way he wished...

The World’s First Proven Flying Car
Last June, this car deployed some mechanical wings and took off from a runway in the city of Nitra in Slovakia, and landed in Bratislava 35 minutes later. After it folded up its wings, the exotic-looking sports car drove off down the highway.
The aptly-named AirCar then did this 200 more times across 700 hours of flight time before the aviation authorities decided that it was reliable and safe.

Why guitar design is undergoing a renaissance in the wake of the pandemic

Change
Blind Mellon
Reading the Far-Rider comic from ADV Moto we got turned on to Change by Blind Mellon.
We were taken with the video and production - but especially by the band and their musicianship.
Really wonderful song and video. Enjoy!

Noble Automotive Unveils a 500-HP Fully-Analog Supercar
|
|
As supercars and hypercars continue to evolve and grow ever more powerful, automakers have bestowed these increasingly potent machines with state-of-the-art driver aids and electronics packages to help keep their immense power in check. Unsatisfied with the industry shifting away from the fully-analog experience of true driver’s cars, the UK’s Noble Automotive opted to introduce its M600 model in 2010 — a high-performance
supercar devoid of the usual suite of electronic aids. And now, after a dozen-year-long hiatus, the Leicester-based firm is rolling out a successor to its flagship offering with what’s been christened the M500.
