And I am blogging. The future is cool. This will be a half blog all about my trip to Sacramento. The other half, about how the entire city smells like flowers will come later.



Spent the week hanging out with the MOTOMATIC dudes. Super cool California folks who build some of the raddest vintage custom mopeds that you will ever see. Dudes cool enough to hook us up with two mopeds that will go 70 mph for the day. Nice way to spend a work trip.









Met a lot of good folks from the Land Squids. Shame I was so tired I couldn't make it to Karaoke that night. These layovers after a full work day kill me. That is my excuse. I'm sticking with it. Not that I am getting old and no longer exercise. Not that eating pizza 4 days a week has anything to do with it.

Back in town just in time to turn around and visit Gatlinburg. May is going to be a pretty good month.

Battery dying now. Just enough juice to piece this video together and post this blog. The end.

Climbing into a abandoned building inhabited by very friendly homeless people you say? Sure, why not. I was a little put off by the mystery liquid that the man was dumping all over the steps as we approached the stairs. Peepee if I had to guess. Never the less, Wednesday was pretty fun.



Homeless man was actually very nice. Lots of people come in there to take photos, so besides that he smells like an anus, and poured his human waste in our walkway, he was a perfect gentleman.

Little freaked out to know what was slung all over our backs. I am just going to assume the worst. Bum shit, asbestos, peepee, and rain water. Look for this to pop up in a project I am working on this summer.





Some parts of St Louis look surprisingly unlike St Louis. Imagine if all these buildings were thriving businesses, rather than abandoned ghost buildings filled with squatters. Looks kind of Like a mini Dumbo or Bushwick. PS. there was a rap video being filmed a couple blocks away. It was probably a local youtube stl rapper... rapping on youtube.






Mopeds are getting lots of attention on my blog these days. I need to pay a little attention to my triumph, or it's probably going to leave me. So, while I am on the subject, check this out. What a wonderful trove of vintage moped images.

Tomorrow is the day! All set up with a GoPro.

Check out our Moped vs. Triumph Bonnie. 900cc vs. 50cc. So close.

Hope this weekend looks a lot like this. See you soon Nashville!
