jawnbcAfter much reflection and hummin' an' hawin', today was shopping day. Here's what ordered (and will pick up tomorrow):
Aprilia Scarabeo 50, 2005 (new)
I had planned on getting a 50cc just to tide me over, but this one is suprisingly snappy. I had no problems getting it up to 70km. It's by far the smoothest 50cc I've ever driven, and I've driven a lot of them. But to ride a bike requires having a helmet and gloves, so I zipped over to my favourite discount Ma&Pa bike shop and grabbed both. Since returning to BC I've been using my lack of transport as justificatiion for not spending enough time with those I love and like. So you're on notice![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
toneyvr, studlybastard, pythagorarse, lusty_librarian et al: jawnbc will be in da 'hood.
*squee*
Also had a good meeting with some colleagues I respect very much in community-based research; some great opportunities for all should be in the offing.
This afternoon 3 of us West Enders burst out in spontaneous conversation (a huge helmet box inspires inquisitiveness or ire on a bus)...and remarked how Vancouverites can be a bit...cold. But once you push through that we're actually lovely. We are, all of us. Lovely that is.
