1 Comment Published by Lesley April 3rd, 2008 in accessories, pink stuff, scooters.Practical? These are supposed to be practical? Bah!
I like to start off with a bang so…
A Schwinn Hope 150
I know that I had previously said that I want a pink Buddy, but I’ve changed my mind. It is probably the cutest scooter ever. It has very similar lines to my […]
Special thanks to Charm City Cakes for permission to use their photo.
I was dubbed a Cake Geek by my husband for my love of cake decorating long before I received my Scooter Nerd status, and I never dreamed those two passions would ever be so beautifully combined!
I have recently become totally obsessed with Ace of […]
A car with better gas mileage than my scooter?
1 Comment Published by Lesley February 27th, 2008 in news & gossip.The other night my husband sent me a link to this car, the Loremo, and it reminded me of the post Crystal did not long ago about the Tata Nano. It’s most definitely not as cheap as the very minimalist car offered by Tata Motors. This one goes for a whopping $22,000. […]
Now, I’ve seen a lot of cute stationary in my time, but the Scooter Postcard, Cut-out Model from ScooterWorks tops them all! It’s a postcard that you can cut out and glue together to make this adorable scooter. I’m seriously considering ordering a whole bunch and doing all my correspondence with them from […]
I was hunting for scooter related baby gear and found this absolutely precious toy, The First Friends Scooter Set for ages 12 months and up. What baby can live without it, really? It’s simple and has fabulous primary colors. It even teaches safety — I love that the little kiddo is wearing […]
As we were lying down to go to sleep at about 12:01 AM on New Year’s Eve (I barely made it to midnight), my husband asked me what resolutions I was making for this year. To which I answered in all sincerity, I’m gonna have a baby. Seriously as tired as I was, […]
What to do when it’s too cold to scoot
1 Comment Published by Lesley January 11th, 2008 in cold weather riding. If you’re having a tough time taking in all the snow, I challenge you to make a Frostina the Scootergirl.
Here’s mine, with my Met. I must admit that I did this a couple of years ago when I didn’t have wee ones to chase around. Today I probably wouldn’t have the energy to […]
Razorbacks & pouting: getting the husband to ride
4 Comments Published by Lesley December 13th, 2007 in cold weather riding, news & gossip, safety.On an average day with five minutes to myself the answer to the question to scoot, or not to scoot? would be a resounding, “Heck, yeah, I’m gonna scoot!” However, the tricky part right now is that I’m nine weeks pregnant.
With my little guy, Nicky, I rode until about twelve weeks, but transportation […]
I was so excited about the Transformers movie, because I’d heard that there was a Vespa “featured” in it.
I was thinking, “OMG! It’s ‘featured’ in a Transformers movie. There must be a transforming Vespa.”
I was so stoked. I got my best friend to watch Nicky, and DH and I headed off for […]
comfort scooting - scooters, chocolates and baths
0 Comments Published by Lesley August 2nd, 2007 in scooters.I don’t know what it is about taking a cruise on my scooter, but when I’m having a bad day things always seem to look up the second I hop on. Especially when it’s nice and cool like it was yesterday afternoon. I’m a perpetual visor opener. I know! I know! […]
