Well, met with a friend to sell my scoot. I hate seeing her sit in the building with me unable to ride anymore. Got my first minibike in 67... this ole bike has 113000 miles on her and my Dad put 10 on two friends put about 15. I did the rest. Motor was rebuilt under warranty at 110K and all I had to pay for was a new piston and an oil pump shaft. I road this scooter like I stole it and wore the corners off the floorboards (where you put your feet) dragging them in turns. It has been almost 18 months since I road and that was only about 5 miles and it was not what I would call a safe ride... good that we live in the sticks. Not going to be an easy thing to do... but it was not easy to admit I could not ride anymore either... but God makes good use of my time in other ways. :encouragement:

That is the plan. I want a wide angle. I am leaning toward the 11-20 mm 2.8 Tokina. Also a big gun... leaning toward the Nikon 200-500 but we will see.

I could not stand to see her sit any more. It is hard to sell them, but it is hard on the machines to just sit. Better for someone to get some use out of it.
