So far, I'm very unhappy with the purchase. It only accommodates a single passenger (what?!?) and has no cargo space! Fortunately, with no gearbox, the transmission has not been a problem. Drafts from Radio Flyer wagons and crosswind gusts are a bit of an issue, though. Mileage so far hasn't been great, but I suspect a higher octane energy drink may improve speed and range. Speaking of energy drinks, my NOS always shows 7/8 of a bottle. Is that normal? The suspension could also use some work as well. Poorly maintained sidewalks and parking lots are a killer on the hindquarters. Winter driving could also be a bit dicey.

I'm thinking about upgrading the wheels/tires so they can be swapped front to rear, but I hear that it might be more prone to oversteer, you'll void the warranty, the tread will dematerialize from your tires, and the swapped rims will cause a geomagnetic reversal that will destroy the planet. While that may be true, this thin front tire has just got to go!

Oh, and you can't get away from the local clubhouse without a ton of questions. Make sure you allow plenty of time on your next bubblegum run...

You forgot, "I shure would hate to pull out in front of a 10 speed on that thing"

You're right! There are 18 speed bicycles, so it could be 'pull out in front of an 18 speed bike'. I obviously need more coffee this morning...

And, thanks for the votes of appreciation. I just have fun writing the stuff, but it's alway nice to know that someone else enjoyed it as well.

It looks equipped with the latest safety feature, anti-anti-lock brakes.

You forgot to mention the FACT that it will erase everything on your hard drive!! But I guess that really won't matter much if the planet is already destroyed!!
