My new baby



Look what finally arrived 9 months after I put down my deposit!

I got a litttle nervous on my way to the scooter store, thinking "what if I've lost the ability to ride on 2 wheels after all this brain trauma?"

Fortunately, this was not the case, and after two trips around the block, I was shifting pretty competently. It was a gorgeous day to ride and I was grateful to be able to ride home in light mid-weekday traffic. She rides so smoothly and so quietly. It's a completely different ride from my little two-stroke, which I'm giving to a friend of mine who lives in North Beach.

This is the first thing that's made me feel "normal" since before my first brain surgery. I'm looking forward to getting a lot of riding in this weekend.

Yippee!

    The image that comes to mind of you buzzing around SF on that adorable scooter is putting a huge smile on my face!
