A friend of mine that is a hippy-ish really cute lesbian chose to go there. Made zero sense to me. But she said that them cute "conservative" chicks were so the easiest to get in the sack for her. Turning out left and right.

One good thing about a&m (aside from the myriad bad things) is that it's a last bastion of core Texas values. Not turning into hipster- Austin anytime soon.

Yep, and some of them know their stuff. I see alot of them doing their own wrenching, which I'd say the number scooter and moped riders that do their own mods and wreching out weigh motorcycle riders. Mainly because of the waves of weekend Harley riders. I know, Harley bikes are the only guilty ones but they are the most common of weekend riders.

Plus, you guys rank on 'em, but I'd bet that we slap you on a Rukus, or one of my mopeds and you roll with us, you'd have a blast.

This is true too, most of the slowered guys are more on the "jock" or "prep" side than hipster. Now, Austin and here in Houston have their hands full of hipster scum. But, hipsters don't just ride mopeds and scoots mijos, they roll on anything "vintage" or that looks "vintage." Usually, they're rich dopey kids that do not do any wreching or mods themselves. I have no grief with someone who attempts and fails to fix their own stuff, or if they feel they are not ready, equipped, etc to handle the job and taking it to a shop (I've been guilty of being over my head with repairs), but I loathe those that have others fix or mod their stuff and act as those they did, or are snotty to someone who did it themselves and doesn't look as nice.

Oh and at the rainbow scooters. Kind of makes any points void lol

Don't get me wrong, check out my bike list, I loves me some small displacement anything. I really enjoyed my old GY6 clones when I had them.

Well Hank, if you got any small displacements they're doing a ride in March, and I'm in the works of organizing small cc races.

I picked up an aprilia scooter not too long ago. , I ride it to the central meet. Any of my friends that ride it come bake with a big grin. It is a blast. I am done trying to impress anyone with what I ride. I am just out to have fun.

The ONLY reason I ride is to impress others...



Impress laughter upon them maybe...

I could never afford something to "impress" so everything I rode was for fun. When the case matching is finished on my 103 (the blue moped in my pic) I plan on taking to different meets.
