Hitch assembly will arrive today, I might put that on tonight OR I can put my new plate on my (now legal) scoot and head out...

Do I need to tell you which one is winning?

It's almost 60 here in the Buckeye state, and I was sorely tempted to ride int work today, but with a whopping hour of experience on two wheels, I think I'll wait until I have a bit more seat time.

There I go, listening to the voice of caution again.

I also ordered a Corazzo 5.0 jacket (they are on sale in preparation for the 6.0 version) and it should arrive here soon.

Armor good.

Me ride tonight.
Love the weather here in the state. I'm just about to head out for the morning doing volunteer work and other stuff. Should be a great day for riding.

Glad your title and everything went fast. I've had good luck with mine as well, but I know how bad it can be.

I have a Corazzo jacket (not sold anymore, but not too different from the 5.0) that I got on clearance. Love it. Made it in a lovely blue to match the scooter too LOL. Like you I feel armor is good - and the jackets from Corazzo are comfortable for me and look good too.

Ohio's DMV is very impressive. Here in NC it takes about 1 hour of waiting in line before any DMV transaction.

It really depends here on where you go and when you go as well as what you are doing. I'm just outside a bit city but go to a smaller location that isn't near many businesses and the like so I can get in and out. If I go to a larger location where they do more, the lines can be 1-2 hours.

When getting my temps, the line to take the test wasn't long but the line to get your information to a physical license was awful. I just left that location and went to my tiny location.

So we're lucky sometimes that if you can find a lesser known location the wait is usually 30 mins or less.

I just got lucky that no one was in there when I arrived...might have made it out faster if I could've kept my big, fat mouth shut...

Oh well...

Woo Hoo! How's she treating you so far? I was the previous owner of Mike's new ride. I'm glad it went to someone who will no doubt love it as much as I did.

The scoot is treating me a hell of a lot better than I am treating it...sorry to say!

I can't wait to get out of my cubicle and get some miles in tonight.

Congrats on the Stella, hope to see you at a MOSC ride this summer.
