Yes!.................what the heck? (wth)

from what I can see.....it doesn't look like a brammo atom.  Although I am probably wrong.

Look at the headlights, and I know the turn signals are an option but not a common one from Brammo

Other than that my guess is Wmcmanus

[bolus]

no, his car is red with wings.  The wheels suggest UK atom

Thats only a 10km round trip... if its going there, expect the owner to be selling it soonish...
There is only so many times you can enjoy the same stretch of road... and its not even a racetrack...

That's a really ugly rollcage.

Not mine, that's for sure.  I've never been to Bimini but it's pretty close to Ft. Lauderdale (maybe 50 miles away at most).  I was in the Miami area at Christmas time 2 years ago and a small plane heading there crashed right off the coast line in Miami Beach.  Very sad to be there at that time.  http://www.iht.com/articles/2005/12/20/ ... i.php  I've since met a young woman in Cayman who is from there and of course lost some friends in that tragedy.

As for an Atom and an Island not mixing, I'm pretty much in agreement there.  There has been a lot of talk (but not much action) about putting in a nice track in Grand Cayman, but so far it's just an 1/8 strip that can actually be used for events.  The rest of the track is roughed in but it will take some time and money to finish it.  Even when it's done (maybe 5 years from now) it would get kind of boring after a while.  You can only beat the same cars so many times.

That's a UK Atom.

I guess he has a big boat and will put the Atom on it, sail to Miami, unload, have a drive there, drive in the boat at the end of the day, and head back home.

From the position (and font) of the word 'house' on the side panels, and the red logo in front of the front wheel, I *think* it's the famous 450!!

It looks sort of sad and dumped in the corner
