Scooter
A break after a spin in the Coast Range
The Wheelworks Vesparados had intended to summit Marys Peak in the Coast Range today, but the road was closed. Plan “B” was a stop at The Woodsman in Philomath.
Steps to fix a scooter flat
Contact the insurance company to learn that scooters aren’t covered for towing. Call Ray’s Towing to arrange for the $75 tow downtown to get the tire replaced. Learn that it might be wise to get AAA Premier in case it happens again. Go back downtown to pick it up Pay $112.74 for a new tire with installation.
Too bad I’m not handy
I’ve always wondered what would happen if I got a flat tire on the scooter. Road repair isn’t simple or convenient. Since Wheelworks is closed on Sunday, I had to wait until Monday to arrange to get the Vespa flat fixed.
Not very mobile today
Vespa has a flat rear tire. Bummed.
