Harley Davidson and Honda

Harley Davidson is having financial problem and I think they should make an offer to Honda or other motorcycle manufactures to make their motorcycle. American company has been outsourcing, and since America is in danger becoming a 3rd world country, they should be trying to get contract from other 1st world country.

By building Honda motorcycle, they will learn a thing or two about quality control. The engineers of Honda will should them how to build proper bikes.

Done

I am done with Dragon Boat racing for now. I did it for 3 years and it had served its purpose. I have never cared about it. It is kinda boring because the most of the races are short and straight. I am used to racing bikes and bike racing takes more than a few minutes. I like to be on course for a while and race against the clock. I want to be fit while I am doing a race.

Dragon boat racing hasn't done much for me in terms of keeping me fit. To stay in shape to race, one must cross train with other sports, like running or cycling. It helps that weight lifting is involved as well. but if I am staying fit by riding my bike, I rather go back to race bike.

IT is exactly what I will be doing next season. I will take out a license and race again. I am already racing this season. I polished off my 'cross bike and I have done 3 races already. It had been fun. They are not easy as I haven't been training that much.
