| 1980 Peugeot 103 Moped... | ||
| Just before
leaving the Air Force in 2003, I bought this nifty moped. I was living in a
trailer at the McChord AFB, WA RV park and campground, while Pam was
in San Manuel, AZ preparing the new house. Everyday I would see this
old man ride through the park on this moped. I liked it and asked him
if he'd like to sell it. Well, one thing led to another and he parted
with the bike. It is amazing that the little 49cc engine still runs
after all these years. But, it actually runs pretty darn good. Now the kids all laugh when I ride by on my moped, wearing a ski helmet, ATV goggles, and gloves...... old man..... blowing down the hill as fast as the moped will go... belching smoke like there is no tomorrow! The Peugeot gets 108 miles per gallon and will go about 25mph. I drive it from time to time when I'm feel guilty about burning so much gas in the Benz!!! Come on down and ride! You'll love it!
