Okay, I've got a new one! Start this exercise at 9:00 AM.
First, you have to wait for a day in the low-90s with at least 90% humidity. This adds to the physical stress to maximize the effectiveness of your exertions.
Take one long flatbed trailer and shoehorn it into a parking space a little too close to the garage. Open the garage doors and push out your motorcycles, one at a time, and load them onto the trailer. This will involve a lot of physical exertion as the bikes are pointing in the wrong direction and need to be turned around in the not-quite-big-enough space between the garage and the trailer. It's a good thing they aren't all that large. The lightest is 480 pounds, and the heaviest is just under 600, so picking up one end and swinging it around is still on the edge of the possible.
Pull out the steel ramp and set it up so that the bikes can be pushed up it, then have your wife help by pushing (like a girl!
) as you strain to make it up the incline. (Gee it'd sure be nice if these things ran and you could just drive them up the ramp, but then you probably wouldn't be getting rid of them, would you?)
Repeat four times until there's no more room on the trailer.
Drag out the timbers and screw them to the trailer deck to prevent the front wheels from rolling or sliding sideways, then start tying each of them down. Sixteen tiedowns later, you're ready to roll.
One air-conditioned hour later (with only three stops to check the lashings) you get to the bike dealer. Untie everything, unscrew all the blocking from the deck, get out the ramp and unload them all.
Pass over the four titles and pick up one (your new ride!!), then drive the new bike up the ramp, block it, tie it, and head off to the Cities for the little woman's errands (driving through Minneapolis traffic with an 18' flatbed trailer tagging along). Eventually, she lets you head back home, but you stop at a Hardee's along the way and each enjoy a low-carb Bacon & Cheese Thickburger (even if you can't finish it!) Before you go, check the tiedowns again, discover a problem, untie the bike, take up the blocking and reposition it, redo all the tiedowns, then head back out onto the freeway.
When you get home, pull out the ramp, untie and unblock the bike, back it down and then ride it into the garage. While putting the ramp away, drop it on your unprotected ("safety" sandals
) foot, breaking only two toes
, then park and unhook the trailer and finally get back into the house at 7:00 PM.
So that was my workout today. My toesies are swelling nicely and the water bottle I just finished puts me at 170 ounces or some such number (I may have lost track but it's well over a gallon!)
Anyone else working out this weekend??
