Pleasurable & Memorable Adventures

This is the restaurant where we had Vietnamese lunch today:



This is Cory wearing his scooting goggles while waiting for a delicious egg roll:



This is what Cory's fortune cookie said:



This is the kevlar belt that Dave at Scooterville advised us to get if we were going to ride 2-up on a Honda Elite 250:



This is the first leg of our trip along the Great River Road, crossing the river into Wisconsin and heading down Highway 35:



This is Cory outside the gas station in Bay City, WI, where the scooter began making funny noises:



This is the table inside the gas station where I called AAA and learned that a basic membership does not cover motorcycles:



This is the second leg of our trip, from Bay City, WI to Red Wing, MN:



This is Cory in Red Wing paying the tow truck man $75 plus $3.40/mile:



This is the broken scooter parked inside our motel room:



This is the power sports place next door to our motel where we will try to get a new belt for the scooter first thing tomorrow morning:

Guys, sorry you hit that patch of bad luck. It does qualify as a "memorable adventure" though, right?

I hope you get it going soon!
