Scooter Adventure
Posted by adamsgarage on August 27, 2010
Andy is keeping his 125cc motor scooter in Bellingham this winter, so today he had a job interview in Seattle and he got a ride down with our mom so he could scoot back.Michael and Patrick were both working, so I rode down to Stanwood solo to meet up with him and ride the scooters “iron butt” back to Bellingham. We meet up at my friend Jeff’s body shop in Stanwood, Twin City Collision. I got a chance to visit for a few minutes with Jeff and his wife Wanda before Andy arrived and we headed north. Andy’s scooter is definitely faster than my Vespa, at this point in time. We had lunch a taco stand in Burlington, then when we were gassing up next door my the Vespa would not start. I kicked and kicked and tried to bump it, no go. Turns out I had bumped the kill switch. Once I figured that out we were on our way. I was a little faster than Andy on the twisties on Chuckanut, but I have several thousand miles on two wheels compared to his several thousand.
