No longer will I be emotionally invested in the Cubs. 30+ years of heart break I am beginning to feel abused…So although I will always be a Cub fan, I am now a jaded one who will no longer let myself become emotionally involved. No more will i pray for them to win, cross fingers, rub lucky trinkets, or practice voodoo for a base hit.
That said here is a Cub that’s a for sure winner The Honda Cub.
“The main bulk of it (inc speedo) passed 14,000 on Sunday. I acquired the rolling frame (1967) which had been laid on its side in a shed for 30 years relieved of its engine, seat, tank, lights etc. (It was paint down one side and mild surface rust down the other!) ..with 2000-odd on the clock.. I put it together with the remains of a 1980s 50,000 mile C90 rusty runner, a 3,500 mile C50 (the L-reg) and a coat of paint. (this was about 10 years ago) and since then it’s been used intermittently. I treated it to a brand new Chinese copy engine the other year to replace the uber-mileage c90 engine – that bit’s done just 4,000 ish.
So it’s a bit of a Frankenstein’s monster / Johnny Cash’s Cadillac!
14000 / 15500 / 64,000 / 4000 miles. “
