so i have this silly little moped that i ride around on. i'm probably too old for it, but it gets 60 mpg and i can park it on the sidewalk everywhere i go. i've actually got 6000 miles on the damn thing.
on my way home tonight, i got about 1 mile into my ride [out of 7] when my back tire went flat. [for those of you who live in milwuakee i take fon du lac avenue home - downtown to capitol] i walked the scooter about a mile to the nearest gas station and threw my $.50 into the air pump to find out that the nozzle and tire are separated and it's not gonna work. i decided it was best not to walk this 150 pound machine home. with a top speed of 15 mph while managing to keep it upright, i finally got home. the entire ride was a challenge because the flat was causing the bike to tip every which way.
just glad to be home and safe. as expected, there were a few humiliating moments along the way - people shouting out for me to move faster and a group of crotchrocketers surrounding me at a stoplight to name a few.
guess that's enough of storytelling for me tonight...

Haha, mm i would love that actually. I was waiting to see what was up with my friend because she wants to get a set together as well. We were thinking we could do a joint one possibly. Sometime very soon. Hope everything is going good!
