Michelle and I went to the movies at the Marketplace (Hangover – GO SEE IT!) and while walking up to the theater I saw a thing beauty, a red Ducati 1198 and the owner was standing right next to it.

We walked up and I struck up a quick convo and he noticed that I was wearing my 2 > 4 shirt, I noticed he had grey hair! This guy, my new hero, has a totally sweet ride, a 186mph top speed, 0 to 60 in <2.5 seconds that just looks amazing even standing still sport bike.

For those that think I’m insane for riding a sport bike at age 45, my new hero is 51 and his other bike, a ZX14, I have new aspirations, maybe the Harley will wait till 60!

OH and if you don’t know who Jason Britton is, here is a sample.
