Yes, it's fast. No, you can't ride it.

Can't say a whole lot about the guy who started the scooter club. He's an hand implement. A very bad one, at that. Rides like an idiot. Smokes while riding. Most definitely the example of how not to ride.

He's always trying to rub in that he only paid $1k for his scooter. We've given up trying to get him to understand that the quality of his scoot leaves much to be desired. He's had to have it repaired several times.

He hates that our scooters (mine and Howard's Stella) are nicer than his and have a groovier vibe. But hey. You get what you pay for. I found it funny that he sent an email asking scooterists to show up for the photo shoot and nobody's scooter would work except ours. The photo shoot was at his house, so he never had to actually start it...

Anywho. Yeah. He's a hand implement who just can't admit he made a bad buying decision and is bound and determined to prove his superiority because he only paid $1k...nevermind what he's prolly paid in repairs.
