This guy wins the lottery and decides to buy the nicest car he could find. He buys a Ferrari. It went 320 mph, had a V-12 engine, and went from 0-60 in 3 seconds. He thought nobody would be able to pass him. He decided to show his car off around the Fullerton Loop. He approaches a stoplight and at that stoplight came a old guy on an Iron Horse mountain bike riding the Loop. The old guy says, "Nice car you have there can I take a look inside." The man says, "Sure look around all you want." When the old guy came out he said the car was all right. The guy who owned the Ferrari was pissed. His car was more than all right. So he decides to show the old man what his car could do. When the light turned green the man accelerated to 140 mph. just as the guy thought he had lost the old man he saw a black dot in his rear view mirror and it was gaining on him. IT WAS THE OLD GUY ON A MTB. The bike past the Ferrari. The guy in the Ferrari was like "no way." He then sped up to 240 mph and dusted the bike rider. But just as the guy in the Ferrari thought he had it made he saw a black dot in his rear view mirror and it was gaining on him. IT WAS THE OLD GUY ON THE IRON HORSE. The bike passed him again. The guy in the Ferrari was getting mad, how could a mountain bike do this, let alone an Iron Horse mountain bike? do The guy then said, "that’s it" and floored it. He blazed past the old man going 320 mph. The guy in the Ferrari said " there’s no way he can pass me now. But just as he said that he saw a black dot in his rear view mirror and it was gaining on him. IT WAS THE OLD GUY ON THE IRON HORSE. There was nothing the guy in the Ferrari could do. He was going as fast as he could. But this time the guy on the bike didn't pass him; it hit the back of his car. The guy in the Ferrari stopped immediately and ran to the old man. Amazingly the old man was still alive. The guy asked the old man if there was anything he could do. The old man replied, " Unhook my suspenders off of your rear view mirror.
With respect... OMR

That must have been what happened to my Garmin 305 when it said my top speed was 103. Yea, that's it....
