I don’t know about you, but with the price of gas drastically increasing every single day, the prospect of getting into my car to go, well, Anywhere just bums me out. That said, I am one of the lucky Green few to own a scooter, and while it’s not quite as green as hopping on your bicycle, the ability to motor around town at 35mph is pretty rad.
My 2006 Honda Metropolitan gets about 125 miles to the gallon and I’ll be damned if it isn’t a lot of fun to ride. Thing is, how do you ride, stay safe, AND be clutch at the same time? Simple, you strap on a lid like the one above that I just bought. Jeff Spicoli would approve.
Helmet City, Inc. have a whole line of retro helmets that come in all sorts of finishes and rad designs. Best thing, they are all DOT certified. Believe it.
