Default Vacation without my scoot

I am leaving on vacation this Sat. to Florida with my girlfriend and it just kills me to not have my bike with me. I have a small car and can't haul my bike and it's just going to KILL me not to have it with me!! I guess I will rent one while I'm down there, but that almost seems wrong when I have a perfectly great one at home. Signed, poor man living beyond my means.

Fly down, buy one and ride back...seems obvious to me (but when spending other peoples money it always is ) Safe trip.

I feel your pain, but give you a chance to rent something different. Try a bagger!

DONT DO IT! I just went on a short trip to OKC to visit in-laws without my bike. I told my wife NEVER AGAIN! No more summer vacations that dont include my bike! Especialy to a state where there is no helmet law. Riding in a no helmet state is a treat for those of us in a helmet required state.
