It’s not the words, it’s the sounds they make when they escape your lips.
Choo Choo Boney.
Suck on that.

maybe get a small piece of black leather and put it on the backside , out of sight, to reinforce where the metal button goes.

What’s a peloton? That bike thing?
I think this thing broke because I’m on the board of directors for a youth soccer league and every so often I have to open or close the fields. The place is huge. So yesterday instead of using the golf cart I rode my Vespa on the fields and trails and stuff to close the fields. When I put the carts away I asked a ref some high school kid who I don’t think has ever been on the back of a bike, I said drive that cart over to the garage and I’ll give you a lift back. We got there and he’s like how we gonna get back, I said jump on. Clearly this was new.
I think he went oh shit! And grabbed it, which is what it’s for. Oh well. Cool kid though.
They have replacements for under $20. I’ll get one, or just take it off, until I can, or if, I get the original fixed.
But my problem is nowhere near dex’s problems. I can live w/o a seat belt

Shoot!!!
I went riding tonight and when I got back I went to turn the fuel off and the lever is like stripped or something. It’s turning, but it’s clicking around, it ain’t turning anything. I figure I pull the engine side cowl off any look around. I have a feeling I’m going to need a part.
