[Kobura]

Having ridden motorcycles for over 40 years, driving my Cobra over the some of the same mountain roads is a gratifying and somewhat melancholy experience. There is nothing that I have ridden/driven that has the exhilaration of riding a motorcycle. The Cobra has some of the open air feeling and some of the ability to carve around the curves in the road as a bike, but it has none of the feeling of being an integral part of the vehicle. I suppose, in that sense, it is an appropriate segue for a motorcyclist entering his retirement years. I decided that I had 'cheated death' long enough while riding a bike and got a Cobra so that I could enjoy more years of my retirement with a safer toy.
