Farewell our faithful moto


This pic was in 2005 on our way to a picnic


Here we are much later, still pre-Sophia...

David bought this moto when we first arrived and it has been great. He bought it (more moped style), because it was the only kind that you did not need a license to drive (the laws have since changed). It has been all over the hills and in so many villages in this area. He only had to get it fixed a few times in the past four years, and only ran out of gas...well, not too much (the gas gage is broken). Today David sold it to a friend for about sixty USD. Crazy. But we bought it for less than 300 USD, even crazier....Now we move on to the big boys, that is real motorcycles, real motorcycle prices...he is test driving Hondas and Suzukis, our friend bought the Suzuki, David is still deciding which one he likes best. We will let you know the outcome, with pics of course! And yes, the speed capabilities of the bikes are now in the big leagues, so while we were in the states David bought a real nice helmet!
