Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

That pic has been posted here several times. All I can say is if I had 25K to blow there would be new Harley Ultra Classic sitting in my garage. At least in 5 years it would still retain most of it's value. I bet you'll see these thing at less than half that in 18 months IMO.

They sold the bike in other non Donald Trump looking versions. Get one, add similar wheels, gold plate some components and still be in pocket enough for a Harley.
