Wear Your Helmet

When I was young, my mom gave me two commandments: 1) Never go outside in a thunderstorm 2) Never, ever ride a motorcycle. OK, so maybe there were a few others, but these two really stuck with me. I think I’ve been on the back of a motorcycle only once or twice. I still get a little freaked out when there is heat lightening ten miles away.

These Austinites have discovered a way to turn a stressful commute into a relaxing, enjoyable cruise. And get 80 miles to the gallon. What about a scooter, mom? Time to check out that new Vespa store.
