Thanks for coming to visit us, Miss Mercedes! It was a brief and relatively no-contact social gathering, but it was still fun to take an hour+ ride with you to see you off toward home. Sorry I didn’t have the opportunity to come help you with the flat in Western PA, but I was very busy tying up loose ends and stocking up food/supplies myself so I can hole up for a couple of weeks without venturing out again.

Some pics for the rest of Oppo:

We stopped on the roadside about 25 minutes out on our trip to admire this magnificent and ridiculously rare import:

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

That is a 2002 Toyota Mega Cruiser, RHD direct from Japan. Last model year for the Mega Cruiser (produced 1995-2002). According to the for sale sign on it, it is one of only 7 (probably in the US).

And the last stop for our group ride before parting ways at I80. I wish you the best with the Scooter, hopefully the flat will be the last big problem you have with it for a long time!

Huh. I thought for a moment you were expressing sarcasm; looked like a Hummer to me.

Pretty cool, well,  except for the fact that it looks like a Hummer.

I remember reading about the Mega Cruiser a year or two back. Hammerheadfistpunch wrote an awesome article about it, I think for an embiggen week?

Oh, i hear you've got an FJR1200. How do you like it? I'm commuting on my Stella 2-stroke, but I'd love something with more oomph to take over the job, and do some day/overnight trips.
