Since returning to America, I've missed the joy and freedom of cruising on two wheels. However, as much as I loved my 145 cc Honda
GL Pro, it was good riddance. After all the troubles it had caused me, I had revengeful desires to drive up a mountain, stick the
throttle, release the clutch, and let my motorcycle go full-speed off of a cliff. I would have watched it bounce into smithereens, and then just walked away, gotten on a plane, and gone home. But instead I did the more civilized thing, selling it to the language school I attended. Speaking of language, they never did teach me the Indonesian words that would have inappropriately expressed my frustration each time my motorcycle broke down.
