Rode the scooter to work for the first time, pretty fun ride down lamar and out bee caves. Little stint at the end on 360 to keep it interesting.

I think I am installing a new belt, rollers, and clutch spring into mine this weekend... especially if it frikkin' rains the whole damn time.

It's totally scooter weather here. I even see this one crazy lady on a Vino 125 who won't open the throttle past halfway clogging lanes up San Francisco with her blinker on. You go, girl.

No clutch, no gear lever. Fuck that noise.

Or not, as the case may be.

I saw a dude this morning who was riding a scooter with a cup of coffee in his hand. Skewing the accident statistics and whatnot.
