    GREAT LIARS come
    and go, but Larry’s the best
    I’ve ever known. Only Larry
    will tell you with a straight
    face about a downhill whee-
    lie. And nobody has more
    spectacular “I - was - goin-
    over-the-500-foot-cliff-but-
    I-saved-it” kinda stories.
    But last week he did a num-
    ber on me that I gotta admit
    wasdamned near genius for
    imagination.
    Maybe what inspired
    him was our new Kawasaki
    dirt bikes. Mine’s the KD-
    125. He got the KD175.
    They're strictly off-road,
    hard-core play bikes for
    dirt freaks like us. Mine has
    a 6-speed trans, his has a 5.
    They have a rotary valve
    engine, self-cleaning alloy
    rims, full knobbies, plastic
    fenders, a washable air
    cleaner element, cleared
    footpegs —the works. And
    they're dynamite. No lie.
    Anyway, Saturday we
    were ridin’ our tails off in
    this incredible woodsy
    place we never had been to
    before. And we just plain
    wore ourselves out. So we
    bagged it for an hour. At
    least I did. And all of a sud-
    den Larry shakes me awake
    and does his number about
    what he just “saw.” He even
    acted furious as hell when
    I told him to quit smokin’
    the ferns and go back to
    sleep. “I'm tellin’ the truth!”
    he yelled. “Okay,” I said,
    "but you forgot Goldilocks
    and the three bears. Where
    were they?” That really
    made him mad. Probably
    because he didn't think of
    it himself. The only thing 1
    never figured out is where
    the yellow paint came from.
