back in the saddle

Portland winters always have that fake-out. After weeks and weeks of seemingly endless rain, we'll get a week or so of dryness and sun. This time, it was cold but still there was sun. I decided to defy the seasons and get back on my scooter.

I had to head to Clackamas for work in the afternoon so I came home and got the scooter. It took a while to get started but I kept revving it up and I even checked the tire pressure (as I am told to everytime I get it serviced). The ride was chilly but I got to take my new helmet out for the first time. It seems large but it's comfortable and it's whole front opens up which is an awesome feature. I think this ride was an anomaly though since they are predicting snow today.
