Zen Thoughts

A warning about motorbikes.

This one's from me. I couldn't resist. The bikers showed up at the annual fall festival parade with this timeless advice.

What is it with motorbikes? I quote Robert Pirsig:

The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of the mountain, or in the petals of a flower. To think otherwise is to demean the Buddha – which is to demean oneself.

Aha. 'Zen and the Art of Internet Posting'.
