I was across the street taking a pix of buddies old Reflex just as the coffee shop opened and filled up with regulars, when I heard one of them say, "Hey, he's taking our picture over there!"


So, I yelled, "Keep your hands where I can see them!"

It got real quiet - then I could hear Dino laughing clear across the street

God I would have been paranoid to park the scoot like that.

If that Camry backed up for any reason...

Ouch.

He's been parking that scooter like that for 6 years.
I cannot figure it out either.
When you reach a certain age. ...and distiction in the village - seems rude to quiz him about it.

That's exactly what I thought too. I never park behind cars anymore, ever since someone did back right into my scoot and knocked it over.

Fortunately, I live in a city where we're allowed to park on the pavements so I don't worry about that type of accident anymore.

Wow... Obviously you guys don't live in a big city. I've admittedly had some bad luck but that would be luxury in a downtown NYC, Chicago, Toronto, etc...

It looks like the Reflex is laughing, too!

Incidentally, the Nitro Cold Brew looks like it might be worth the price of admission
