Hello All,
Yesterday afternoon headed West @ 10th Street and First Avenue Downtown Minneapolis, Swerved to avoid a Mercedes who was pulling over for an Ambulance.He did not see me,I hit the brakes for a quick stop but, could not get my feet to the street In time.My S-200 just tipped on top of me,and pinned me down.I reached over and shut it off with the Kill Switch.About 20 people came to my aid,righted my scoot. 1 minor scratch on the Front Fender and snapped off the Left Winker Light.I have a tiny scrape on my Left Elbow.i already ordered a new Winker from the folks @ Scooterville, In my opinion The Twin Cities Premier Scooter Dealer, with Sales And Service second to none!!
There Is an awful lot to be said for Safety Gear, I had on my Helmet,Leather Gloves,and my Joe Rocket Riding Jacket,A couple oof people here at the Restaurant where I am the Executive Chef have been giving me a hard time of "How can you wear that Jacket when It Is so hot outside? It has been In the High 90's here In Minneapolis the last couple of days.With all the vents open on the Jacket that I wear for Scootering It Is not not at all uncomfortable.
So I guess that's all for now all, Wear that safety gear!!!!!! Have Nothing Short Of A Terrific Day !!!
