I just might have to stop by since it's so close. Depends on how little Z is doing and if mama needs a break.

Dude and Dudets of the Pig City it was fun.
I left The garden of Enon and Followed my GPS along route 42 to Pig town to sip with all you swine (In the most affectionate greeting). At Quatman's I was early for I had not traveled this way and wanted to have plenty of time to get there. As to not be received as a vagrant I bought a cheese burger before your arrival. I explained to the nice lady that some of my rowdy friends would be coming and she smiled. I said they will be coming on scooter, she smiled. I said that bone girl is somewhat of a celeb and she my have tats but that I thought they where painted on, she smiled and said Bone girl? I said yes that"s it. I said they ride buddy's and she smiled but it had a bit of concern to the look. I saw a Blue buddy pull in but it immediately wheeled around and departed. Humm I thought? Then Ben came and Mike on his Syms. This was like a Buddys night out after that as 5 more buddys showed up. Pink, Green, two tone green, black and the rusty kinda color with the flat black trim. The rusty kinda scoot looked like a street fighter, (If Buddys are allowed in that category). Seth came with his shifter, a Stella, The Stella had a left panel that was real rust and we all know that rust is just another color when it come to vintage scoots. Seth's rear turn signal plastic has a Chevy bow tie emblem in them and I have no idea why?
We departed Quatman's and headed along the city streets following Ben. Seth , I found out, is a formation weaver and he likes to scoot. he risks life and limb to stop traffic for our passage and I was concerned for the brake of the Cincinnati folks. He is fun to watch.
By-in-large i found out that you aren't. Large that is. Small people ride buddies and that is why I ride a Silverwing. I have the wide body rule and that is that my scoot has to be wider then me. but I wish I where small. you all look so good on Buddys.
One scooter chick came with her, new to her, Main Land scooter. she use to ride cupcake with another Cincini ride but decide to take control of her own handle bars. it was a nice scoot.
We ended the ride at fry's a fine Clifton establishment. fry's had a shuffleboard game. I was teamed up to play a round with the redhead. She had a wonderful glide, a smooth touch and a fine aim, I on the other hand gutter a few times and was the reason for us losing a fine 2 point lead before the last turn. The red head will of course move on to a better partner and that is sooo disappointing.
Ben said to me, while pointing out the door, "go! When you get to skyline chili turn right and it will lead you into the ghetto.". I found the ghetto friendly as a lady in heels waves. and the police where at every corner so it was safe.
The trip up north was good and when I rode the speed limit all the lights where green. however at one corner i turn wrong and Samantha the voice on my GPS began to female dog at me. she made me turn around and have a do over.
I saw a sign That said I- 75 and a ramp. I took it but it was 275 east to 75 north so now I'm crusin baby. Here is where I learned that at 70 MPH the GPS read 6 miles per hour slower. so I took it to 80 and sure enough the GPS is 6MPH slower, so what ever I boogied north. At the I-675 exit I notice that my gas indicator is flashing at me. this is not good. so I slow down and head to Centerville for some Benzine. it took a full load. I skipped up I-675 to Mi Casa and the Silverwing really is smooth.
So there you have it too much to read for so little benefit . :D

Here are a few pictures I took last week. I hate a flash at night because it tends to wash everything out. So without a tripod I get a lot of motion. I threw a ton away but a few I kept, fuzzy or not, because they still reflect the fun we had. Thanks for your tolerance!
