The Best Day at Work I Ever Had
Back in the fall of 1977 I sold my car and ordered a new Honda Accord. I had a bike to ride to work so it was no big shake. Then came the dock workers strike. No cars were unloaded from the freighters until early December.
About November I attached a sidecar I had and mounted a Trials-Universal tire to act as I snow tire if I needed it. Well I did. I went to work one day in about six inches of snow. The shop foreman walked by and said “you didn’t”? I walked him over to the window and showed him my bike in the lot.
The next day he lit into my group leader who had called off the day before. The foreman said “That dumb S.O.B. came in on a motorcycle and you couldn’t with your 4x4”?
Needless to say, my relationship with my group leader was never quite the same.

If I had a dime for every time somebody proclaims what a real rider is, and it just so happens that they do that, I'd be retired.
