Reason to love yard work!
Honda has built a riding lawn mower that can reach 130 mph and do 0-60 in four seconds flat. Suddenly I start to regret expanding the garden area to reduce the size of the lawn.


Quote:
Honda released a YouTube video on Wednesday showing that its new toy does just that. The tag line to the promo featuring Scottish racing driver Gordon “Flash” Shedden in the seat says: “What do you get if you take one lazy Sunday afternoon, one British Touring Car champion and the world’s fastest lawn mower? Well here’s your answer.”

Nah! Would not take one if given free. I usually do not exceed 70mph, not even on the interstate. I also do not have any lawn (all xeriscape).

Such a geezer before his age (not even 60 yet), and for picking my own stocks I have been called testosterone laden. Go figure.
