I would make sure you have your virus definitions up to date though.

I recently bought a Triumph Bonneville which is a modern take on a very popular bike produced in the 60’s by the same company. I absolutely love this thing, I’ve been riding it every chance I get. It’s the same line of bike that Steve McQueen rode in “The Great Escape”.

Here are some photos I took over the weekend.

This guy is eating nothing but Monkey Chow for a week to see what it would be like to not have to do any dishes, cook or spend more than $1 a day on food. He tracks his progress with a video diary that is pretty funny, around day five he starts to loose it a little.
