Today I needed to find the location of a building I’m doing a bid on tomorrow morning up in Lenexa. A perfect excuse to take the scooter for a ride. Avoiding the interstate, my route took me by Oak Park Mall in Overland Park, where one of my favorite stops is, Barnes & Nobel. I made the 15 mile or so journey up to the business park I was looking for, then made my way back to the mall. I have a Nook Color and do a bit of reading, at B&N you can read any e-book they have for free (on your Nook) as long as you are in range of the store’s Wi-Fi. Every once in a while I’ll spend a few hours there reading a new best seller and sucking on a Mocha Frappachino. I could have spent a few more hours there, but honestly, it was so cold in there it ran me out.
One of the great trials of going to the mall is always the parking, well I must say the Piaggio Fly 150 solved that issue, we found a perfect spot. It sat there for over 3 hours, unmolested by the mall cops and passersby. I filled up the tank for the second time, I was on about 1/8th of a tank and it cost exactly $4.50 to fill it up with premium grade. I wrote the mileage down so next time I fill it I can see how its doing.
I did see two scooters today, a light blue Vespa just 1/2 mile from home and a mustard color Honda Metropolitan for sale at a local car dealer. Was a great day to work on my sun burn.
