It is a nice post and this post having nice collection of scooter's pictures.There are many sites that deals online shoping of scooters.The best way is instead of going outside search scooters online so you must be able to buy good scooter.

did you ever read about the guy who rode his scooter from Italy to the UK? that would’ve been a stunning journey.

I can relate. For me there are different levels of tiredness. I prefer the kind that actually dissipates when you get on the bike, as if riding eraces it and you perk up and all is well, at least for the time being. Then there's another kind, that no amount of riding or resting can resolve. It's a mental, physical, perhaps even a spirituall fatigue that makes life a challenge at best. I'm just coming off a nasty chronic fatigue problem that has made me long for the former kind of tired as it would be a huge improvement.

Hope the launch of your ride season is a fun and safe one.

It was not actually an advertisement, just made to look like one. Rob Reilly, an American teaching English in Japan, made it with his personal Super Cub.

He has lots more motorcycling and Super Cub-themed videos:

Hi Steve! Living down here in high heat and high humidity, that came a month early this year, we are just waiting for Autumn. With our luck it will be as long as Spring: one week. But it will be a reprieve! Hope your weather starts cooperating soon. Love the image of the bike under the tree. Color is fantastic. -Lori

Steve:

Your comments hit home with me. Lately it has been so hot that gearing up for riding seems overly protective and I too relaxed my rules and tried jeans and running shoes on a recent bike gathering. Somehow it just didn't feel right.

Heat saps your energy. Luckily the past few days it has cooled off and made for great riding weather. Our rainy season will be here soon enough so we have to enjoy the sun while we can

Rick: That advertisement for the Honda SuperCub is fantastic. Makes me want to go for a ride right now.

Next time I complain about the weather remind me of this video!

Christine: 100+ and high humidity. Ugh. Thankfully there have been a few cooler days to ride. And in the evening or at night it is a pleasure to feel chilly.

anonymous from Australia: Reading your comment and description of the heat made that icy beer sound fantastic. And I don't even like beer that much.

Loughton: I have to confess I have softened my ATGATT policy this summer. On really hot days I have made the choice to ride in jeans alone rather than putting on the Tourmaster Overpants. Still have everything else but more than once I have thought it wasn't a good idea.

Leather would be really hot I bet. At least the stuff I wear is vented or mesh...

Jack: I thought packing groceries on a BMW was some sort of BMWMOA violation that would bring about repossession of your motorcycle.

Hope you find some cooling relief soon and get that bike fixed.
