I got a wild hair and went out and bought a motorcycle, so that's by far the easiest way
to get around.
The side of the lane belongs to two-wheelers, by law, like you have to give room.
That's really meant for bikes and scooters, but if you're on a motorcycle, you can use
that space, and you're allowed to filter and lane split.
Every red light, you just roll to the front. Even if there's traffic, you're not sitting
in traffic, you just roll to the front of every stoplight.
If you drove, we lived in Yokohama for a while, so if you drove in the afternoon, in the
morning, it was 35 minutes, at 6 in the morning. It was a 35-minute drive. At 5 o'clock,
it was 90 minutes. But on the motorcycle, it was only 50. That's a huge difference.
Yeah, lights on that.
Yeah. It was a lot of fun. I toured around some, and I had a small bike. It was a perfect bike.
It was a Suzuki DR250XC Gibbel. That's D-J-E-B-E-L, which is, I think, mountain.
Gibbel. Okay.
Moroccan. But it was a dual sport on off-road bike.
