Sad day, leaving Portland and the west coast back home to the south. Been on the move scooting around since Hurricane Katrina. I will miss the scene and quality scooter people from the Rip City. Time to make new scooter friends and begin again.....

Where abouts is the next port of entry? Is always tough leaving a place, but exciting to open a new chapter in life. And with luck you can go back and reread chapters with a different perspective, and often you find those details which make it all the better.
Killer scoot though, just looks mean sitting there 😎 |

Thank you for your kind words and perspective, it really helps. I'm going back to Louisiana, haven't lived there since Katrina. Super excited to see how the scene has grown. First rally in March in NOLA so life isn't gonna be so bad. It'll still be frigid & possible snowing in Portland.
And my scoot is my world, so much time and effort transforming the beast.....

Absolutely, and congrats on getting back to NOLA. Absolutely love the city, few like it that are simply saturated with history as well as culture. Hope your first rally back is better than expected, willing to bet it will be!
