Easter ride with Sofia part2

The fun continued after I called Jaybee to ask him if he had found the gas mask I left on his p200 "Big Daddy" so he could use the sandblaster to get the rust off of it. one thing lead to another and we ended up meeting at the yacht club. On the way there my engine cut out on me at a stop light and so I had to kick it over when the light was turning green, lets just say I gave her a bit too much throttle and I popped a wheelie through the intersection...at least I had a little bit of unexpected fun.

I met up with Jaybee and we went out to the spit and talked about meeting up on Sunday with the Rev. Bill for an Easter Run and called it a night. The next day we all met at the yacht club again only this time the weather was a little crappier. Billy showed off his new look and we took off with myself in the lead.

I ended up leaving them in the dust after I got up to 60, I hadn't realized until I looked behind me and couldn't see anybody. We eventually met up at the spit again and shot the shit a little more, only to head off to Lincoln park.We noted that the longhouse they have there would make a great location for a rally center. Naturally the Geezers Moto-Scooter club would take first place in all categories of a contest in our scenario.

After a bit of conversation and joking around we all went our separate ways for the rest of the day. I can say I particularly enjoyed the bit of snow we had from about 5:00 to 6:00

Easter ride with Sofia part1

It was a great day for riding yesterday in the Pacific Northwest. I started by riding over to my parents house so I could fill the tires up with air, after that I got my Dad to ride it around the block. He has always been a little wary of riding a scooter because he grew up in the school of Harley Davidson and even the thought of a classic Italian two-stroke was a little iffy to him.
After about a minute of telling him he could ride Sofia now or wait another two weeks for his tank to come back from being painted he jumped on and started her up on the second kick. I gave him a crash course on how to work the clutch and off he went.

Five minutes passed and he came back. He seemed to have a good time but complained about his wrist hurting from the clutch. He handed Sofia back over to me I went off to have some more fun. (continued in part2)

Its been a while

I haven't really posted anything for a while but I've still been riding a lot. I went for a ride with some of the geezers last weekend and let Billy ride my Lammy. He had fun on it I could tell so I decided this week I didn't want the fun to stop so I rode Sofia as much as I could in between the rainy patches we have had this week. I have also been working on some pictures that are intended to go on JayBee's Allstate Vespa, he has decided on going for a Yellow Submarine themed Scooter. Here is a mock-up shown above.
