My scooter is in the shop getting the tranny fixed (bearing noise), so I still have the prospect of riding it home - even though I'm insured until Feb.
Naturally, because I am insured all year 'round, this year La Nina is kicking it up & they're expecting the harshest winter in over 50 years.
Sigh. Pass the wax .......

Just covered my bike for the winter, bugs and all... Not much into grooming a bike... It's why I picked a silver bike where only the bugs with yellow guts show up!
