ride a scooter

Monday morning: Kids organised fed and clothed – babysitter all primed. I jump in my always reliable never had a problem ever prius… FLAT BATTERY! No phone number to call and let them know what happened and so now I have to rebook and REPAY! the bastards! revenue raising I tells ya!

I’ll keep you posted.

I want to ride a scooter on a tow road at a racetrack/

July 7th and 8th I will be taking my rider training course and (hopefully) getting my rider’s licence!

YAY!

Now all I need is a vespa!

this year!

Even if it’s Portland…

When the weather gets better, on a quiet Sunday morning…

I WILL learn to ride the little Aero scoot and start using it for my work commute. In this day and age I feel ridiculous driving 2 miles each way.

Ride A Scooter

with a sidecar.
...and buy the cool goggles and leather ‘helmet’ that goes with it (old fashioned style)

Okay, see if you can keep up. Several years ago, my honey purchased a dark red Honda Reflex. Rode it for several years, liked it but last year (in conjunction with the big 4-0) began obsessing on motorcycles. Eventually bought a Suzuki Volusia.

Then became obsessed with retro scoots and bought the aforementioned 50cc Aero, allegedly for “me”. Has ridden it to work frequently since. I still haven’t learned to ride any motorized 2-wheeler.

Then became obsessed with the Honda Helix, a popular 250cc retro scoot and shopped constantly for a used one. Gave up on that when she found a dark red Honda Reflex for about $1000 less than she had sold hers for, with less mileage on it.

So we currently own (in addition to our two cars) 1 motorcycle and 2 scooters. Although the motorcycle is now being purchased by my honey’s brother, but it remains in our possession til he can arrange to come collect it and ride it back to his home in New Mexico.

Meanwhile, I still need to learn to ride any of ‘em.

She is banned from buying any more vehicles for the forseeable future.

I’m secretly glad the Reflex has returned, I was very fond of the previous one and sad when she sold it. I had always meant to learn to ride it…
maybe now I will.

Riding a scooter is simple. But it’s hard to explain. Somebody should show you how to do it who is really good at it. For me, All I know how to ride with wheels are bikes, cars, and scooters. Skateboarding is coming right after when my friend teaches me.

Good luck though !
