That T-6 is an awesome plane. Wife got me an hour of stick time with it for my birthday one year. An hour in that plane was $650, and worth every penny. Though it flies like a heavy tank, and really takes some arm to roll and loop her.

We both have our pilots license, but haven't flown in a while...putting two kids through college crimps your play money I live a mile from the airport...so I never get bored.

I also fly RC planes, though I'm not sure if that is any cheaper :-)

Not a huge fan of self pics, and this ones fairly old before I came over to the dark (lycra) side.

if you are overweight at 168 lbs
then you are probably about five foot six or less
in which case that bike is about two sizes too big for you
and by the looks of the seat slammed into the frame
this is true

having a bike that fits is the likely advantage the other riders have
not their weight

None with my bicycle, and very few where I'm recognizable. Here's one from a BMW rally I rode to, on the bike in the picture:

I like picture threads even though nobody really cares what we look like and probably already know.

Us on a break at a park



After a 42 miler



Minutes after a 100 miler



The night before a ride at a spaghetti house.
