Where we actually have to work is in the St Julien's Creek area over by the Navy shipyard so we have to go through a tunnel to get there from Virginia Beach.

I really like the Town Center area of Virginia Beach. I used to always stay at the Hilton Garden Inn there which was nothing special other than the fact it was walking distance from Ruth's Chris.

That certainly makes it special.

Going to check out the book, looks like a good read.

Updates and pics to follow if I buy it.

Oh forgot, by law we need to wear a helmet.
Nice!! Pics mandatory.

Did you like the Ducati? I demo'd a hypermotard and it was AWESOME. I'll probably have to own one someday.

When I realized that Martin is very likely insane he became a lot easier to deal with.

PTR had a vote-in for POY in 2009. A group of us from teh PS regs thread decided we would cram the ballot box and give it to Martin. Unfortunately the glory and fame went to his head.

PTR has some contest for player of the year in various games and stakes. I believe it is simply by vote, so a bunch of people on here voted for him for the fun of it.

I think second place was a joke vote too.

Yeah the Ducati was awesome to ride, good torque and great sound. The older models did have some vibration issues which made your fingers numb sometimes. New models don't have the same problem from what I hear.

Martin is a ton of fun if you don't take him seriously. Reading his threads is instant tilt reduction for me

very true. Remember when he started commenting on all the nit's PTR wall. Didn't matter if you were up 100x his lifetime earnings he still slammed you. Then there was his post calling out Vini for being a 'nitbox rakeback pro'. LOL, seriously insane.

Bike update: purchase confirmed

Massive beat: I can probably only ride like 2-3 weeks more this year until it gets to cold. Then I have to stare at it for 4-5 months in the garage
