MG TD TF 1500 - quote of the day

from our local british car club newsletter as taken from a bumper sticker somewhere..

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving
safely in one pretty and well-preserved piece...but to skid in
broadside, thoroughly used up, worn out, and defiantly
shouting "wow, what a ride."

"Life lets you go around only once, but if you do it right, that's all you need"

from a local memorial celebration. The fellow did life backwards, spent his early life skiing, working on fast cars, 8 yrs boating across the Pacific, basically doing what he wanted to do. "Came ashore" 20-25 yrs ago, worked as a boatwright and doing any project he wanted to do, including boats and cars, died fairly suddenly at 77.

And another one from a classic car magazine some time ago

I'd rather die with splinters from the wooden steering wheel in my chest than from old age in bed

Needs a Moto Lita for TDs, though...

Along the same line....I ride motorcycles every Sunday morning (vintage bikes) and we go to breakfast etc. Someone once asked us if we ever go to church. One old guy in his 80's who rides BSA's piped up:

' I'd rather be riding my motorcycle thinking about God that sitting in church thinking about riding my motorcycle '. Every since then that is our motto and truer words were never spoken.
