Riding up from Singapore to Penang. The GS. Somewhere just north of Kuala Lumpur, the body and the bike become one. Legs fuse to the petrol tank, shoulders move forward, hands attach to the handlebars, no weak points. A new creature, a hybrid, a two-wheeled, 95-octane consuming humanoid.
This car: it's got everything. Mine is black, with black windows. Every time I see one in the street, I gasp - and then my heart explodes in happiness when I remember - I've got one! It's big, it's comfortable, it's a Toyota so it's utterly reliable. I've been everywhere in it - the four corners of Thailand, over mountains, crumbling roads, through rivers, and over the ridiculously potholed roads of Bangkok. When I leave Thailand, I'm taking nothing with me except this baby.
I have a Toyota Fortuner 4WD in Thailand (see My Heart Explodes With Happiness, in this section), but I am living in England some for the time now. I needed a car, so I bought a Toyota MR-2. It's silver, it's sleek, it has red seats, it looks like it was designed by a jet engineer. Nothing is there which is unnecessary; it's so simple, it's a design masterpiece. Driving through the Lake District, top down, summer evening... does it get any better? One Toyota is happiness. Two Toyotas is bliss!
