Spring is here!
Took the muffs and skirt off today, super warm and a full week of sun ahead!
Took my oldest daughter out for a ride to catch the sunset here in Nanaimo BC.
Yes I know my bike is dirty, but my daughter plans to give her a sponge bath this weekend. :D

I haven't read this whole thread but so far I don't see anyone asking this question: What is that thing attached to the back of the seat area just before the tail box? It reminds me of the containers used to carry bike papers in other countries, except it looks like you have 2 of them.

Yes, I would love to live near Mike. Our daughter and grandkids live outside of Seattle...to the north of it in Mukilteo. We continually family ebook and text back and forth, with them wishing we lived closer and us agreeing.

Hi all, finally got out of my "cage" today. Part of my journey took me to Goldstream Park, Victoria BC.
My backdrop is a Red Cedar estimated 500 years old.
Truly amazing.

Has anyone else noticed the these so called smart tablet make up words and stuff them in place of one's you want there? I wish there were a way to turn it off. It makes for some really dumb sentences. Meanwhile, back to the subject at hand. Nice place to ride your scooter. Wish we were up there as well.
