Long day at work

A long day at the office. it is after midnight now and after 12+ hour at work its time to hit the sack. Back at it again tomorrow.I took the bike in to Honda yesterday morning to get the hydraulic fluid refilled in the rear brake. $157 bucks. ouch!

This is my new toy. I absolutely love it. It is a Honda Reflex 250cc Scooter. I've been looking at buying one for a couple of years now and when gas finally hit $4/gal a month or so ago, I decided to go ahead and get one. I found this at the Honda motorcycle dealer over on Atlantic Blvd, They hardly ever have used scooters there so when I saw this one, being just what I have been looking for I bought it on the spot! I took the MSF class at Patriot Motorcycle Training in Green Cove Springs and have ridden the bike to work (a 40 mile round trip) several times. What I did not expect was how much FUN it is to ride! Its pretty speedy but seems happiest at about 40mph and gets about 60mpg.
