Visiting NYC bro had Mom so I decided to see an e-bike dealer this morning during Cartalk. All set to buy a e-bike but test drove e-bike that is a scooter with pedals (vs standard bike but with electric motor), and electric scooter, and a 50cc scooter. I originally planned for an e-bike but I am ready to buy the gas scooter. As I told the Honda & Husky cycle dealers, I only want something in a putt-putt, to get around town & able to climb 400ft in 3 miles.

Another window of opportunity, Monday morning only before bro goes back home.

It’s blue. And wife is opposed to it-I got her a pink helmet. Bought the thing from the importer-distributor, Paid with recent gains in Elon Musk’s companies.

I figure a pay back of 3 to 4 years.  
Thanks guys for the debates on Tesla.

Nice irony in paying for it with Musk’s gains. He’s a smart dude. The Model S has gotten raves from everyone but the NY Times, and their screwup was better than any rave review.
