[QUOTE="hppants, post: 1351417, member: 27852"] I can't say that riding my motorcycle has made me a better repair person. Truthfully, on my very best day, I'm a mediocre repair person at best. I wouldn't call myself a mechanic - more like a parts changer. If you tell me which part to change, I can usually chew it off and glue it back on. But otherwise, uh..... nope. I used to enjoy home improvement a lot but quite frankly, over the past 10 years, that feeling has waned a lot. Of course, there is still the advantage of cost savings for a DIY project, but I've also learned that for every $1 I save my family in home improvement repairs, they somehow find a way to [S]blow [/S]spend that same dollar on something else. And while I still enjoy some maintenance work (like maintaining my motorcycle), for the most part, I'd just as soon hire someone else. [/QUOTE]
