Fresh off the assembly line, zero miles on the odometer, brand new silver-and-black 2008 Genuine Scooter Rattler 110 (http://www.genuinescooters.com/scooters/rattler/rattler.html), affectionately known as "the Buck-Ten".

110ccs of raw scooter power!

Wish me luck.

You'll probably get 150 mpg on that hog................

Wow. I confess, being out on the main roads was a bit scary, but I made it.
This thing has some power, all kidding aside. It leaps from zero to 30 in an instant - like I'm a slight weigh-shift away from poppin' a wheelie. I got up to 45mph a few times, but mostly cruised around 40. The scooter had more power to give, but I couldn't take the wind in my eyes with no goggles. Definitely will address that problem.

This thing's gonna be fun.

I'm wondering if I could slip into the tailgating region over at Commonwealth and avoid all the traffic and permit hassles? Just drive right across those soccer fields and cruise up to our tents? Might have to give it a shot, just to see what happens.

I'm still a few years away from needing that rig.
Close, but not quite there yet.
