Signs You Bought the Wrong Vehicle

Motorcycles are incredible. They can be called beautiful and bad-ass simultaneously. They provide an almost un-matchable thrill on the road and for a few thousand dollars you’re faster than a car 100 times as much. They have nostalgia, character, history and mystique. But despite their economical gas mileage, they are not exactly practical. This couple was spotted today heading back from Los Angeles Airport. You know what’s handy for taking people and luggage somewhere? Cars.

Now I’d like give them the benefit of the doubt. Maybe this was one of those emergency situations where on the day of your un-refundable 2 month trip to Hawaii your car grenades, and you’re forced to load your weekend cruiser the way a family of 11  piles on a moped in India and make a mad dash for the airport. Unfortunately the smiles they had on indicates this is a regular thing for them.

Can’t say I’m that surprised. She’s wearing a reflective vest during the apparently poorly lit hour of 2pm, to make her more visible and thus, safer. Yet she chose the “road-rash-friendly” fashion item, the jean short; it’s clear logical purchases escape them.
