Is that you slinger? That scoot purrrrrs like a kitten. You need those O.S.H.A. ear muffs on mine. It's soooo quite here in Carrabelle, People a mile away call to tell me I'm home.

Dang... you trust oncoming traffic more than I do, huggin' that center line in the curves!

Looks like you've got some zip in that Miracle Whip. ~40mph?

The way that scoot sounds I wouldn't worry about any more tweaking. Congrats Bro! Just one Question! If the camera is in one hand, and the throttle is in the other...  I get it! You have a cup holder!!! NICE.

Here's what happens (http://kymcojones.blogspot.com/2009/08/pwp-time-management-version.html) when you bungee a tripod-mounted Sony Handycam to the back of a People 250.  :) 

Oh... and speed it up 6x so as not to bore everyone to death (if you LIKE being bored to death, start here (http://kymcojones.blogspot.com/2009/08/pwp-ride-8209-part-1-of-5.html), instead).

Percy Warner Park is the largest metropolitan park in Tennessee (larger in acreage than some state parks). I'm fortunate to live about six miles from it. It *is* a fun ride, but as you can see, there's a lot of pedestrian and bicycle traffic to be cautious of.
