I've been gone from the forum a few weeks...bought a '78 peugeot moped and have been working on getting running...well it runs...but now I'm getting it running more better...haha
joined a forum called moped army...these things are fun and addictive...unfortunately here in Colorado the government has taken the fun out of anything fun so you have to:
1) have a license
2) get it registered
3) to get it registered you have to have insurance on it
4) ride it like a real motor vehicle...
back in the old days we could just do anything stupid and it was our own darn fault but I guess things change...oh well
My daughter is using it to cruise around the neighborhood so we're officially riding "dirty"...
I told her to cry if a cop stops her and then pedal it home...
here is a vid I found on youtube showing what folks are doing with these old things...
