We had a couple great rides around town this past weekend while some of the kids were in Victoria for the rally. The weather was absolutely delicious. We made some new friends, too.
I met Guy outside Vespa Seattle on Friday. I was once again trying on riding jackets and he was picking up something for his brand spankin' new dragon red Vespa GTS. We gushed about riding our respective GTS's and I invited him to join the Westenders on Friday's "Operation: Cupcakes & the Beach" ride.
We were also joined by Angie and her modded-to-the-hilt mint green Stella, which was imported from the rough streets of Boston and living to tell the tale. Angie founded the Ladies Scooter Society of Boston and relocated to the fine city of Seattle a few weeks ago.
We took a truly blissful ride through Sand Point and Greenwood to Ballard. The route was deep green and filled with eye candy. We ate dinner at Scooters (!!!) and then went to Golden Gardens along with everyone else within a 100 mile radius, apparently. At the beach, we checked out the picnic site for our upcoming Westenders Rally (more on that later!) and enjoyed the final etchings of sunset from our rockstar motorcycle parking spots. Membership has its privileges.
The evening concluded with Cupcake Royale at Cafe Verite in Ballard, hands-down the best confections one can consume. Red Velvet, all the way.
