phillip and our peds after a lil ride. also hiding the wires on the magnum.

good times.

So with some of my tax return money I went and picked up this derbi variant SLE

  needs new bearings and seals. 

anyone have a derbi pipe they wanna sell?

 and its been really nice this week by Minnesotas standards, close to 40 all week. So i decided to take the Ciao on its first REAL ride. about 40 miles round trip.

people look at me like im a gorilla riding a tricycle.

Spring!

So now that it got over 30* and there is some open road I am all hyped on nice weather. I figured I should get a bunch of stuff I have been putting off done. First off, finally get this kill switch fully operational. Works like a charm, and I feel it's in a pretty good location. My domino kill switch flew apart in a parking lot on the last day I rode it last fall. Bummars. I think I like this setup better, though. I also put new grips on my BMX bike, I will have flanges now. Weird.

Also, while relaxing listening to some Mayhem and Gorgoroth (why did nobody ever tell me about black metal!?) I noticed that it may be a good idea to get a couple of washers and a wing nut, I can fasten my treats plug tool under my tank so I don't need to put it on my key chain.

Seat Modification

Rub-a-dub-dub there is a moped in the tub

Doing it the hard way. Gotta finish Baby G before WB3

I flood this thing with dumb posts

Today is a great day, the piston that brandon gave me works like a dream. I had to take it out for a lil wet, snow and ice ride. ya gotta. it also pulls to 30 harder now. fun fun fun. 

one bad dude

warm beer turned into snow cold beer on the walk back to pizza wed. bags stuffed with snow and cans, snow is good for something! 

painting in my room.

so far so good. 

new paz pucks in 2nd gear.

 70?cc mystery kit for now.

wires and things.

Today I finished the wiring on the ciao. I have always hated wiring, and I still do. It's like that weird annoying kid that you hate being around, but one day you realize why that person is the way they are and they are suddenly not so bad... anyway  the more I understand the more I don't mind it so much but still not a fan.
