Moped Deux

Clicky for bigger pictures...

Ladder in hand, I'm ready to spring to action when fire is near.

High in the Hollywood Hills, are bikes take a scenic rest in front of the Hollywood sign. I think they put that thing up in 03 or 04.

Look at that motion blur! But don't be confused, I wasn't breaking any land speed records, just puttin' around at a cool 28 mph.

I don't know what torque is but I need more of it. Steep ass hill bitch made me PEDAL and then walk up my bike. I think this is why mopeds are better than scooters though, you'd be screwded doubly on a 49cc scooter with no pedal as an option.

At a red light. You can see the eternal lighthouse of Taco Bell behind us if you squint.

Rob took these photos from his 1979 vespa, which goes real fast. Still getting my photos developed. i really need to buckledown and get a digital camera one of these days. Oh, side note: Cinematech has been picked up for another 22 episodes, so I have gainful employment pretty much to the end of the year, but looking at an October weeklong visit.
