I got a scooter

Posted on July 31, 2007

I bought a cheap scooter last week. Its a poorly built 150cc scooter, but it serves me well. I figured that a gas tank would last me about 3 weeks if I just rode it to work and back, but the thing is so much fun.

One thing that made me mad was to have to fill her up…I rode away from the gas station $3.61 porer and that will probably last me only a week…so my gas expenses went from about $50/week to about $3/week – so I am saving about $2500/year on gas right now….feels good.

    For your unsafe — and seriously uncool — list:

    The bastard who took me down in turn 4 going into the final sprint of the Cat 4 race at the Deluge Crit because he couldn’t hold his bloody line. Pisses me off that he managed to stay up by taking me down…and pisses me off even MORE because he did not have the human decency to come over and say “bummer man, sorry…” and at least come up with some lame excuse if he didn’t feel up to truly apologizing.

    sorry to hear that. Any chance of getting a name or team?

    Unfortunately, no. I wasn’t even sure what happened — other than the fact that I was on my ass sliding across the road. Others who saw it told me the guy took out my rear wheel. I hoped I’d be able to spot the guy in Kennybz pictures…but no such luck.

    I suppose it helps to vent though…
