Sturgis is coming up soon. The talk around the campfire was that I should go. The group felt that as soon as I would arrive, some burly group would up-end my scooter into a dumpster.
I went to Walmart today and found Fly's little brother parked with him when I came out.
Across the street there is a Sonic where I talked with two fellows who were busy putting 30,000 test miles on a couple of '09 Saturn Vue Hybrids.
33mpg. 120,000 mile batteries that power basically a golf cart electric motor. The batteries do not have to be recharged by plugging in to an outlet because they charge from the turning wheels and the braking system. Now when the batteries do go, they will be about $6000 to replace.
I rode over Monarch Pass for fun. Going up, the drops were on the left and a lane or two away from me. It was all good! Coming back across, the left scary stuff became the RIGHT scary stuff. I am very uncomfortable with steep drops beside me so the cold, the rain, and the fear gave me rubber knees. That was fun too.
Chuck pulled up behind me to make his own picture of the sign at the divide. I tried to get out of his way more quickly but ended up dumping about $20 worth of quarters on the ground from my camera bag, and most likely showing my butt crack cleavage when I stooped down to gather them. Oh yes...I am cool.
So I put him to work taking my picture. I am on the Pacific side....
And now I am on the Atlantic side!
Lots of beautiful scenery.
Not so beautiful scenery. heheheh
I pulled off into gravel to take their picture and came as close to dropping the scooter as I ever have (except the time I fell off of it), so to act cool, I took pictures of scenery that was not so pretty.
And of course that worked and made one of them think he should flirt, but all he could think to talk about were the lodge pole pines I had just photographed to cover up my own mess-up. I learned much about the pines as I backed away slowly. It was never destined to work out, so they left while I walked my bike out to the road while gravel rolled around under my boots.
I just don't understand why I am single when I look like this in the morning.
