Spring snow

Spring is finally here, and it is snowing...What to do?..what to do?

                                                                                   

                                    We have the bikes, we have the gear, let's....go RIDE IN IT!

If you need the gear to do this. Come see us, we have it all!

                                                                             

Scooter Jousting III: The Hammer awakens.

                                                         We held our third annual scooter jousting event.                 

                            Kerrin and Rachael were warming them up. Testing the rides and the equipment.   

Oh, That fits well.

     There was no need to be hungry. There were all kinds of yummy dishes made by friends and we supplied drinks and Chicken Chili. Sadly, no one remembered to take pics of the food spread. We even had a few awesome cakes. Some of our customers are turning pro (Heather).

                                                                             There were family crests.

And valiant steeds.

As well as some serious contestants. These young guys are getting better every year.

E. trying to get the girls to check him out. 

                                                                We even had squires to retrieve weapons.

                                                                               

                                                                          Yes, that is a helmet.

    This year, more people made their own weapons. 

Tell me this wouldn't worry you?

Team Monster Helm even had its own squire (pretty good with a sword already)

                                    This year? We even had an impromptu scooter limbo contest.                             

                                                                         

                                                                         The bar got quite a bit lower than that.

                                                                             

                                                                      There were plenty of smiles

The bikes ran all day with some TLC, but they didn't look too pretty in the end. Don't worry; both of these bikes were low quality Chinese scooters destined for the scrap heap when we got our hands on them.

If you didn't make it; you missed a good time. We'll see you at the next one!

                                             
      Thanks to Heather for some extra pics! Check out the event HERE on Facebook  and another blog A scooter in the wild will have another perspective for you.   

                                                                   

Sunday back roads

   A Sunday ride to the Old Sled Works in Duncannon, PA turned into a back road adventure. We enjoyed trolling around the shops for a bit, and of course, a few vintage cold sodas out front before we left.
    It was just Cody and I so the roads were getting smaller and tighter; until we found what we were looking for.

                        The equipment wasn't made for this, but that never stopped us before.

                                        Making some fellow riders jealous. This is our kind of road.   

We may be doing a little hiking/hunting up here this year; so some further looking about was in order.        

Eventually, the sun was getting low in the sky, and vintage headlights aren't the best after dark. So we headed back down the mountain and toward home. We hope that whatever you ride, or whatever the road surface is, that you found some time to get out today. If you didn't, make sure to stop by the shop when we are open and we will try to have you ready for the next time.

A little october fun

There were chores to do at home, but that doesn't mean you can't have a little fun. The course dead ends, so you have to do a 180 at the end and come back around.
