LAFAYETIS!

Big bad Amanda Hart and I went to Lafayette Indiana last night to hang with Brian (DWAYNE) and the Lafayetis, They so cool. Did the Adventure ride again..... Which if you dont know is a GRUELLING 2 mile off road bike trail right off of a river (newbs usually fall in R.I.P.). People eat shit on this trail, really. The last time we rode it I saw like 5 people's chests hit the ground....bent forks and rims all around. You have to pick your moped up a few times to get over fallen trees and there is sand everywhere. SO FUN. I saw 4 Samsquanches while riding thru there, made me ride faster. Cant wait for the rally to see people get massacred! Those Lafayetis are so cool! Oh and Phil is the Ultimate Gay Nerd.

 We were cruising main and asking girls for phone numbers. "YO MEET ME AT MCDONALDS"

GEEK SQUAD.

 Phil's Garage.

 So who REALLY invented these?

 Rigid w/ fat girl seat.

 UPS MAGGY.

 Guess what?

 Amanda telling ghost stories with no punch line.

Moving around.

So my camera died and every time I goto the store I end up buying twizzlers and not batteries. I've left Austin and am heading back to Chicago. I stopped in Hutchinson Ks, Lawrence Ks, KC MO, COMO!, and am currently in Des Moines, IA. Got to see a TON of moped homies and it's great to have loaners all over the place. Got to see Kenden, Ryan Nash, and Nash Wiley, need I say more? Not to mention all the MIDMO, CT, BB friends. So headed to Chicago tomorrow with a pit stop to see my buddy Robert in IL to drop off some 5 stars. From Chicago I'll prob chill for 1 minute and then head to Nashville,  ahhhhh. Rally season rules! SO BUSY also with the help of MIDMO Ive been making and curing (in my car) derbi 3 roller custom weights. So when I match those with clutch springs and my Derbi Ninja pipe, I should have a great setup on my Laguna and be super reliable and close to stock. pics coming soon.

CARB OF THE YEAR! 12:7 DELLORTO SHA!

And you thought your 12 mm keihin carb sucked? why do you think Vespa tuners are always so pissed?

This carb was only for bikes designed to check the mail and or cut through a backyard to go to a pop machine.

How many people do you think right now who are getting out of mopeds because one of these came on their ciao? It's like people who after 10 years of not riding buy a shitty 30 lb schwinn road bike off CL and totally write off biking because theyre riding a nasty american hunk of steel that is hard to move.

New tattoo idea, maybe I'll get i next to my Gurtner one?

RANDOM MOPED PHOTOS #3 - Ciao, Batavus Mondial, SAPPORO BIKE?

SOOOO got a new camera, not too good but it will get me by. been super busy working on stuff and SXSW is happening right now. So its like 1,000,000 Bernies from weekend at Bernie's 2 congesting all of Austin. Got some good buddies on town right now. Brett from KC (Peugeot dude for life, doesnt like Puchs. I once saw him drop kick a magnum and made it into a step thru cause he hated it so much.). Benji (HNRZ prospect) and Hannah (his GF she's a cool babe) from Chicago are here running around somewhere. Funny story.... Tony from HNRZ told Benji that since I was in BLK BLK and Trifecta that he had to do whatever I said. So since I'm not a mean person, I just made him stand against a wall and we shot him with a slice of pizza out of a water balloon launcher. He took it like a champ and has received nothing but respect from me since! This week at the shop we got in a 1980 Batavus Mondial and a Sapporo moped, which I include photos of. Also we met with Doug Joseph who is the U.S. Tomos Sales Manager, he's a really rad and nice dude!

 This is a Vespa Ciao that Jimbo is building for his Girlfriend. Keeping it simple. Euro lights heyhey!
