Bultaco 250? Do they still make them? I saw lots of them when I raced cross country and motocross forty years ago, but I don't think I've heard it said in probably thirty years. Is it "vintage?" (read my post above about Gran Torino.) Larry

Dont know if the bike could be classifiede as Vintage Larry. It was originally bought/owned by a family member here. He used it for raceing TT(short track), 'Back-in-the day'. Along the way, lights -brakes-fenders were added to make it road worthy, and I aquired it not long after I arrived over-seas.

When people call their car a '' classic '' when it was built in 1989. Not even close.
Mixing up the words '' then '' and '' than '' so that then now becomes a reference to more or less, and than become a reference to time or place. |

Yes, in the movie "Gran Torino" his dumb grand daughter called his 72 model car "vintage." I graduated from high school 5 years before that car was built!

I'm pretty sick of hearing "it is what it is".

"Across the World" really gets me! Have they gone back to believing that the world is flat?

LIKE Apparently, every 20 year old who has a degree has graduated from the "Like U" where they teach you that you absolutely must insert the word "like" into every sentence..........preferably more than once. The use of the word is incessant..........sometimes they can state it 50 times in the span of five minutes. It's "like" a cancer on society.........those who cannot speak need the word "like" to make a point. "You know" is a very close second. |
