I'm like 99.999% sure it was you and Evan who passed (and waved) to a super cool, black Vespa GTS this morning heading into SF...That was me, by the way.

Suhweet!

You were on two wheels (it *is* a cool scooter) and moved over n everything... What's not to wave at!

Yeah, that thing looked serious.

I looked back expecting you to be on our tails.

Yeah, I saw you two coming up, so I scooted over. I did enough splitting at the Maze. For some reason, scooters get zero respect... or they simply can't hear me coming.

BTW, I did catch up. I saw you guys turning left onto Harrison as I was going right. Yup, all 22 hp caught up to you guys.

There's an Asian gal (she's got black hair anyways) and she hauls ass on a scooter on the bridge. Today I was a tiny bit chill, but sometimes Enzo and I are doing a respectable clip. She makes passes and goes faster than I'm comfortable with a lot of the time. That four miles of the bridge just isn't worth the risk, but she seems pretty comfortable...

I think I know who you're talking about. One day when it was raining HARD, I was in my cage, and I saw her flying across splitting and going past all the cages. I fell in love with her!

Too bad she doesn't know it, though.

This is what "missed connections" on Craigslist are for

mostrobelle · August 22, 2011, 08:50:15 PM

Busted.

Sorry I didn't wave till after you passed this morning! Partially because I was cursing under my breath to move over again for another motorcycle

. But mainly because my brakes are so crappy that in a blink of an eye, I would be asspacking the cage in front of me.

As I passed you and enthusiastically waved and you didn't wave back, the thought occurred to me, "What if it's not him?" That would have been weird.

This is making me so glad I don't ride the BB to work every day. The RSR is just fine for me.

BTW Ray, I suspect it's not a problem of respect with the GTS, but that ppl don't hear you. I just flip on my high beams when splitting.

And I usually get a wave when I wave a moto by.

Nah...it's a respect problem.
