I rode up to Oceanside today “on the freeway”! WooHoo. I noticed they closed the 52 eastbound for resurfacing. Love the smell of fresh asphalt in the morning. I stopped in Carlsbad and had breakfast at The Daily News Cafe<\/a>. This is a great breakfast place that I have eaten at before during BikeMS training rides. I got a great spot right in front of of the place. I ordered Eggs Benedict, my favorite. A number of people were checking out the scooter, so I was happy to answer their questions.<\/p>\n

I dropped my scooter off at the Vespa dealer and went to go spend some money on riding gear. Gail picked me up and we went to North County House of Motorcycles<\/a>.\u00a0 They have a fantastic selection! I was amazed at the vehicle selection they had. But alas, I was not there for motorized vehicles, but clothing.<\/p>\n

I ended up buying a new jacket and a pair of pants. I picked up a Teknic Sirocco Jacket<\/a> in red. I love this jacket. Pockets everywhere and it fits me like a glove. It was on sale for $127.50, so I was really happy about that.<\/p>\n

I also picked up a pair of Fieldsheer Mercury Pants<\/a> (in black). I have not ridden with them yet, but they fit fantastic and if they work as well as the jacket, I am going to love them as well. Again, they were on sale for $$152, so I was loving that.<\/p>\n

By the time I was done shopping it was time to head back and get my scooter. They had just finished the service when I got there. The service along with all the parts, supplies and taxes came to $142.16. Looks like they may have washed or at least wiped down the bike. It seems to have a nice shine to it now.<\/p>\n

When I got my bike I put my old jacket and my new pants in the top case. They fit with a little room to spare, even with the hangers. I left the Vespa dealer and I headed\u00a0 to downtown La Jolla via the 101. It was a great ride, lovely weather, and light traffic. My bike no longer makes the putt-putt sound when idling, so the service has fixed that, hurray!<\/p>\n

I arrived and met Angie at La Jolla Cove and we ate lunch at Brockton Villa Restaurant<\/a>. We feasted while enjoying the lovely view of The Cove. Afterwards, I headed back home.<\/p>\n

Days like today are why I love living in San Diego. 83 degrees on January 31st! Wow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
