His son has been arrested. It's been suggested he has had mental health and drug issues for quite some time. But you're right, it's all speculation until it comes out at trial. Tragedy of the highest order.

I've been to College Station, Texas. The only things there are the speedway and Texas A&M University (and the Hooters restaurant staffed by lovely young college co-eds). The restaurant story goes like this: we all sat down after an 8 hour WERA endurance race. I was parched, so I ordered up the...

Nick Reiner, son of Hollywood director Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, has been arrested and booked into jail in Los Angeles County after his parents were found dead at their home in Los Angeles. Nick, 32, was arrested late Sunday evening and booked into jail on Monday, according to online...

A few years ago, because of unfortunate circumstances I had to get a rental car. It was a Hyundai Elantra - nice car EXCEPT it was this time of year and had summer tires.

The son is being questioned.

If you own either a 2025 Ducati Panigale V2 or a 2025 or 2026 Ducati Streetfighter V2, Ducati North America is recalling some units of both of these models due to a mixup in fuses that were installed in the ABS pump and control unit. Both a 25A fuse for the ABS pump and a 10A fuse for the ABS...

No reward without risk I totally agree. I think the point that was being expressed is that this generation has other distractions that are risk averse because there's money in it for someone somewhere. Kinda like drinking decaf coffee or kissing your own sister.

From a post on ADVRider - "I think we're in the process of adapting to how we've changed our social environment. Business and government (both overwhelmingly dominated by men, especially in the USA) have made much of what used to be considered "manly" obsolete. The frontier is gone, and with it...

I've gone a few times, the Toronto ride got way too big so I went to the one in Newmarket the last couple years. More fun.

I just hope it doesn't turn into another expensive country club like Mont-Tremblant.
