hello hello

none of my moped blogs have been getting much love lately. i am currently one of three full time techs (one of which is out with a broken collar bone and the other who is moving away) at one of san francisco’s busiest motorcycle/scooter shops. i am also trying my best to run a moped repair shop out of a space i rent from said motorcycle shop, a repair shop that has yet to pay for itself since i opened it six months ago or so. needless to say, i haven’t had much time or spare money to work on my own bikes.
however, i miss them dearly, and hope to be back to working on them before too long. i have picked up a couple projects here and there when i did have a few spare bucks, not all of which are actually mopeds, but still awesome and totally worth posting here anyway.
my hope is that within the next couple months both this blog and the ciaociao blog will be back in action. i’ve got plenty of work to fill these pages, i just have to find the time to do it!
now i’m going to go and cross post this to the ciaociao blog.

cutter rally killed it

i don’t know what it killed exactly, but it’s dead.
such an awesome time. i spent the saturday ride driving chase in chad burke’s truck and still had a blast.
sunday i was riding lindsey doubles on sabatino’s race small frame and it was awesome.
here, look at this video.

the rally got me super stoked on mopeds again. i can’t wait to bust out these projects that i have building. i hope to have this blog rolling again with new and awesome stuff!

also, it was awesome having 4 people tell me randomly in one night that they read this dumb thing. makes me want to update it more often!

Portland’s Puddle Cutters 2010 rally video

is probably hands down the best rally video this year. i’m trying to go to this one!

sometimes you just have to make things fit
