Nighty night, Godot

Last night I tucked Godot away for the winter. She's tucked away behind Paul's scooter and Paul and Christy's car in their underground parking spot (thank god they went for the hatchback!) Paul and I still have to the mechanical work - take out the battery, hopefully put them up on blocks and let a little air out of the tires. Little things. But for now, I'm just glad to have my scooter safe from the minus 13 weather we're facing right now. No snow for my scoot!

It was a little melancholy to say goodbye, I've barely had a chance to ride this year (less than a month, riddled with cold and rainy days!).

But, looking at it from the other direction, I've got a whole season's worth of hassle free fun coming my way in the spring. I don't have to ever go back to the shop that caused me so much grief this summer. I can start the season fresh with a new scooter, and new resources.

Spring seems like a perfect time. A rebirth of my scooting life.

There's talk of a Toronto Chapter of the Vespa Club of Canada. I'm just nerdy enough to be interested in that!
