Personally I rather just ride, but not to go to work. But yes, both the wife and I rode our scooters to work today.

You must be a teacher. Me, too. I'm halfway through 10 weeks off. The only pity is, my scooter has been in the shop for a couple of weeks! I have been riding my bicycle instead of driving, though, so I'm doing my part.

Yup, every day.

Come September 20th (my BD) I'll have ridden 365 days straight. Actually more, but that's when I decided to start counting.

Yea!! I did.

I live only .09 miles from my business so I usually walk to work but on Tuesday and Wednesday I get to ride 2 miles (each way) to get to our other location. The best part of my day is the ride there and back!

I really WANT to ride my scooter to work, but am worried about it being parked in a shopping mall lot for several hours at a time. I think I would be too worried about theft or vandalism.

Ride safe!

I ride to work every day...except this day

My daughter's laptop went kerflizzle. I found that the problem was covered under a service bulletin and was a free fix if I could get it to the local service center. The service center was on my way to work if I took the interstate...right off an exit on the way. So I took my car since I don't do the interstate on my ET4, and found that the place closed a little earlier than I thought. I pulled into the parking lot as the owner was pulling out of the parking lot.

A beautiful riding day also gone kerflizzle.

But today I'm riding again.

I've been chased by dogs, but a bear must really wake you up in the morning.
