no, i have no inside scoop on lindsay lohan or any of the other frequent offenders of the bottle....however, the rehab i'm talking about is the kind that cares for mopeds.
yes, after the incident the other day, i can no longer go on riding or in my case, pushing, the BAT-mobile, nor can it be the summer of the moped until my precious gem is healed and running once and for all.
i know you are probably thinking, 'isn't that why you took it to opie in the first place?' yes, indeed, the answer would be yes, however, it seems my understanding of "fix it" and his understanding of "fix it" appear to be different. when i said, "hey, can you fix my moped?" and he said, "yeah, i can fix your moped," something was lost in the translation.
you also may be thinking, 'why would you take it back to him when you've already paid him $300 to fix it and it is clearly not fixed...what are you some sort of chump?' though your support is appreciated, unfortunately after approximately 17 calls in the greater kent county area, no one, NO ONE, services old school mopeds. no one that is, except opie, the moped guy.
it does sadden me that so far, the summer of the moped has been underwhelming or as some might say SUCKY, but i trust that this time, or any of the next five times, it will get fixed and i'll be riding off into the sunset at a full on 30 mph.
my goal....one, just one, refreshing worry free ride around the block, even if it's after our thanksgiving dinner
more to come...
