Merry Christmas!

The Paducah Twins - Linda and Terry's CSC Motorcycles

Well, here we are.  Christmas Eve.  In a few more hours, Christmas will be here.   This is one of the best times of the year, and I sure am looking forward to opening gifts tomorrow morning.  Actually, I’m more looking forward to watching my kids and Susie opening their gifts.  I’ve pretty much got everything I ever wanted, so whatever the girls bought for me is just icing on the cake. 

Without question, the best toy I picked up this year was my red Classic.  I love my California Scooter and I am proud of what I’ve done on it (most notably riding down to Cabo and back).   Yep, I still have the Bajabound.com and Mama Espinoza’s decals on it (take a look at the photo below).  I left the decals on my bike to let people know these bikes can go the distance, and truth be told, I don’t mind bragging about that accomplishment.

I know two people (along with a whole bunch of others) who fell in love with California Scooters this year.   That would be Linda and Terry from Paducah, Kentucky.  The bikes you see in the photo on the right are theirs (Linda’s is the black one, and Terry’s is the red one).   Linda and Terry sent these photos to us and I wanted to share them with you.  Check out the custom paint with the original Mustang logos, too…these are two great looking bikes!

If anyone had told me a couple of years ago I would be running around on a 150cc bike I probably would have thought they were more than a little bit weird, but the small bike world has proven to be a remarkable place.    But most of you already know that, or you wouldn’t be reading this blog.  In a word, small bikes are cool.   And if you’ve been watching what gasoline prices have been doing in the last few days, small bikes are getting cooler every time fuel prices ratchet up.  It’s going to be interesting to see what happens next year.  If fuel prices continue to climb, well, the California Scooter’s 98 miles per gallon will become a whole lot more significant. 

I didn’t get my California Scooter to save money, though (even though it does that every time I ride it).  I got it because I thought it would be a lot of fun, and I was right.  You can have the same kind of fun, and you can save money just like me, Terry, Linda, Jimbo, Carl, Arlene, Vernon, Eddie, Fred, Norma, Digger, Mike, Jim, Hans, RB, Billy Joe, Charles, Thomas, Don, and a whole bunch of other California Scooter riders. 

Hey, have a Merry Christmas!  I won’t make a blog entry tomorrow, but I’ll get in another one or two before the New Year.   Enjoy your holiday!
