I made it through my middle age crisis years without buying a convertible nor having an affair but now that I am safely through that danger zone I've decided that I can't live without owning one of these:
A Russian Ural two wheel drive motorcycle! Based on the WW2 German BMW military motorcycle but updated with fuel injection for the engine and disk brakes to stop. It can carry over 1,000 pounds, has a reverse gear and with a tug on a lever, you can connect the side car axle to get drive to both rear wheels! How cool is that?
I can't think of anything more fun than a motorcycle with side car. It is so dorky it is cool.
It ain't cheap but I feel that it is the real me. Someone in my town has one and it looks like Indiana Jones has stepped into the 21st century when it chugs by. If I get one maybe we can form a side car gang!
Please talk to the Missus and convince her to get me one!

Maybe someday I can get a a side car for my motorcycle and then I can be in your gang! I actually saw a sidecar with a full grown man in it the other day and it looked pretty silly. Much cooler to carry kids, dogs, or stuff. Or your dad if you are "Jr." and your dad is Sean Connery. Then that is cool.
