Run you little turkeys... Thanksgiving is coming soon
A week ago I came around a turn over a hill and smack into a flock of about a dozen of these big birds. They all scattered in a rush of wings and I didn't hit a one. Luckily I wasn't going very fast as they'd wreck a legshield. On the other hand, I do have room in the freezer....

Can we get more pics with Autumn foliage before it's too late. Chilly but dry here today, so I went for a ride and took this pic. Who else has pretty leaves in their neighborhood they can share before they all fall down?

Nice shot ^^^ Mr Roland, I like the angle. But why does your front wheel look a little odd? I think it's probably just the lighting, colour and angle but almost looks backwards - which I highly doubt.

Thanks mate.
If you talking about rim - it is SIP tubeless 2.5" wide with 110/80 tyre on it. The hub is original 16mm P-series.

It's pretty nice out today, probably the last warm day for a while, but excellent for scooting.

Autumn leaves were stunning this year but then last Friday Tropical Storm Nicole blasted them outta here and ushered in some chilly temps.

I only have these memories of a last good rip around town 10 days ago on my blue VBB with two new local vintage scoot friends -- a tuned bitsa VBB and a 2T stella. We're all running different tires...

Time for other "winter" projects. Sigh.

Scooter picts from the start at the First Annual SLO County Vintage Scooter Ride.
This ride was a Birthday ride for Mark Sheffield.

There were 20+ scooters on this ride with Central Coast riders and riders from San Jose, Fresno and Santa Barbara.

The temperature at ride start was 75F
