I Happened to Look

Yes, I rode to work today.

And . . .

As I was ending my home ride, I pulled into one end of our alley just as Heather was coming from the other direction. She has the automatic garage door opener. I have to unlock the side door and push the button inside to open the door. I was happy to pull in front of the garage door and wait until she worked her magic. I didn't even shut Miss Billie's engine down. I was going to have the rare opportunity to pull the little beast into the garage rather than push her.

While I waited for the garage door to open I happened  to look at the odometer.

After all these miles what are the chances I would pull up to my garage with the odometer at exactly 22000 Symba miles? I love when things like this happen. I know these type of coincidences don't mean anything, but somewhere in my primal mind my heart is pleased the Spirits gave me a small blessing.
  • 69F/ with a few clouds for the ride to work.
  • 90F/ and some hazy lazy clouds keeping me company on the home ride.

  1. I like the even ticked-over miles, that headlight gleams but there's just something about that gauge face I find beautiful. A great way to start a dark and stormy Friday.

    Thanks Keith!

    1. Coop,
      I agree, there is something very beautiful in the simplicity of the gauge face. It is quite the contrast to the Kymco"s.

      I hope you had a wonderful day.

    1. We've been a pretty good team. I have a new windshield, rear brakes, and a clutch kit coming from Taiwan. It needs the brakes. I want the windshield. And, since I was ordering I figured I might as well get clutch plates. In other words, it looks like we might be together for a few more miles.

      Glad your home safe and thanks for the comment.
