    Default Thinking about buying a small helicopter...

    Just to avoid the traffic congestion on I-70 in the mountains.

    I think I have spent about 20 hours in the truck over the last several weeks when I should have spent maybe 9 or ten.

    Is "lane splitting" (or "lane sharing") illegal in Colorado? Maybe I should take the bike.

    I think so, but I see people doing it anyway. It makes me absolutely furious unless I'm completely stopped. One time I saw a guy going just slightly faster than the rest of traffic, but it was a pretty bad traffic jam and he was all the way on the shoulder, so I just thought he was lucky to be on a bike.

    Haven't ever seen any traffic splitting here, but I see lots of cars driving down the hard shoulder...I always have to resist the urge to turn into their "lane"

    I had someone do that to me, I pulled in front of them. They were less then pleased. Somehow I never lost my place in line.

    Back in 2004, my senior year in high school, I managed to arrange a flight for my class on board some Hueys at the Army NG at Buckley AFB

    I have been riding since I was a kid and have never had the balls to do that.
