Moped night plus M.O.P.E.D

So last night was Tuesday, and Tuesdays in Chicago are moped night. We met up at my garage, hung out, wrenched a bit, then headed over to check out HnR Will's new shop; its pretty swanky. Should be quite convenient to run down the street to pick up little bits needed to finish builds and maintenance.

Rain Delay!

The rain came suddenly and hard so our hopes for a ride got washed away, but we did manage to shuffle back to my garage, grabbing beer on the way. Crazy Chicago weather always has us on our toes. Oh well, still and awesome night.

Hey guys, gals, and things.

I have finally decided that I have enough interesting (subjective) content to actually start a Moped Blog. As a result, I will be using this as my main outlet for all moped related high jinx. Hopefully you will at least get some entertainment out of what I post if not some actual useful information. My goal is to update this thing once a week, so feel free to yell if I don't do so.  

As an introduction, here is a little information about myself:

I'm Sebek, commonly referred to by friends simply as Seb. I live in Chicago and work on mopeds out of my garage which has been lovingly given the nickname 'Seb's Used Parts'. I've been doing this whole moped thing since around 2006 when I bought my first moped, a Batavus Starflite. Since then, I've owned many a moped, many of which have found their way to other owners. 

I work on mopeds as a hobby, but in addition to my own, many other people's mopeds (you down with OPM?) find their way in and out in various states of repair and awesomeness. I hope this becomes a channel by which to show you what happens in and around Chicago as well as the various locations mopeds lead me to.

I guess that's it for now. Check back soon for a real post. I have some good pics and stories to share from Blood Drive Infinity.
