okay we obviously stan motorcycle adam but may i ask for a brief explanation as to why you (correctly) predicted he would get one in cdth? like how did you guess that lmao
I’ll be honest: I have no idea how I came to that conclusion textually/factually, only emotionally.
VERY NOT-BRIEF EXPLANATION TO FOLLOW.
We recorded Episode 0 of the Ravin’ Girls podcast WAAAAAY before I was really even on Tumblr or following Maggie on social media or anything–I think it was late July or early August 2017, then released on Sept. 21st. Maybe Maggie had made an offhand comment about motorcycles I had run across? Mostly, though, a motorcycle for Adam just really, really made sense to me from a practical/economical standpoint. AND A SEXY STANDPOINT.
LOTS OF MOTORCYCLE FEELINGS UNDER THE CUT, INCLUDING PHOTOS OF ME AS A UNFORMED GRUB-LET. (aka “child”)

#this except reversed #i really want ADAM on a motorcycle #he would totally justify how economical they are #both in initial purchase price and in gas mileage + maintenance #also his commute back to the barns would be faster #because he can lane split and get through gridlock #and parking is easier at a big school right? #but really he would love the look of shock and awe on ronan’s face #every time adam pulls up on his bike and flips down his kickstand #and pulls his helmet off and his hair falls into his eyes #and he’s in LEATHER and ronan cannot keep his shit together #and adam’s like your hands are petting my ass again lynch #and ronan’s not even sorry about it #and practical adam is thinking another point to the motorcycle #and jeezus #this is all i want for christmas #amen
I even did some cost analysis on a very expensive bike (Ducati 2019 17K-30K) vs. a practical mid-sized car (Honda 2019 17K-30K).
I ask you: which would be sexier? I think we all can agree on the Ducati. ;P
Then Maggie posted a photo of a vintage bike on Jan. 27th, 2018 and I was hyperventilating: https://substanceparty.tumblr.com/post/170197322138
All that said, I think it comes down to that fact that I grew up not only with Camaros, but also motorcycles. There wasn’t a time I can remember when we didn’t have Harley, Indian, or Triumph motorcycle parts stacked with band equipment in my living room (we didn’t have a “garage” on the “farm”, so into the living room it was stored.) Motorcycles have always just been a Thing in my life, my dad was constantly rebuilding classic bikes, so it made sense for Adam to do that too. (Of course, he probably won’t need to do that on a dream bike.) XD
I’m pretty sure my dad has more photos of motorcycles than his kids on his Facebook, but here are two classics:
Me at probably age 1.5-2?
Me at maybe 8-9, little brother probably around 3, guest appearance in the background by the Beast (1967 Camaro ragtop).
So yeah. I’d guess that’s why I was so set on Adam getting a motorcycle. :)
