If you came here from your inbox then you might have noticed that I changed my Entrecard. Saturday we got my new scooter so I decided to use that for awhile. I didn’t get to play with my scooter Saturday because the weather was so ugly after Bill rode it home and Sunday was rainy until the afternoon and when the sun came out we took it up to the high school.
I blocked out my license tag for security reasons although I don’t know why because if you lived around me you could see it, but I have no clue what someone online might be able to do with it. The minute we pulled up on the Harley I spotted this one and gravitated to it. They had a pink one like it, but I didn’t want anything really girly looking and the thing that is so great is this dealer keeps parts in stock and services them there.

It had a retro look that I really liked. This is a Lance Charming 50cc well actually it’s 49.7 otherwise I would have to have a motorcycle license. When we were at the school Bill wanted me to practice starting and stopping and I did some of course, but I wanted to concentrate on putting both feet up and balancing and riding which I did and I was whipping around the parking lot and having a ball.

I have to get alot more practice before I take it on the street and remember to turn the throttle away from me when I want to slow and brake slowly and remember to put my feet down. That’s alot for this old mind to remember all at one time, but Bill said I did good and I was very proud of me. When I get used to it and feel more sure then I’ll putt along behind Bill to Gettysburg.

When I get it broke in I’ll be able to go up to 45 miles, right now it goes 35. The dealer told me that it will get 110 miles per gallon when it’s rode more, but from what it said online it’s between 80 and 100, but I’ll find out for myself eventually. The tank is 1.5 so I can get alot of miles for very little money now that makes me ecstatic. When I get used to this one I’ll trade it in for a 150cc and take the safety course and I can do that on a scooter.

I’ll be able to get a motorcycle license then and get out on the highway and freeway. I can’t wait.
