When I was young, many an earth orbit ago, I spent five years on 50cc mopeds, a Puch the longest and most. I also went on vacation to Germany with it. Up and down the hills. I remember accidentally driving through the 'pedestrian only' zone in Trier. Oops.
I never really "outgrew" the mopeds. I just was offered a great deal on a car, and got it.

Maybe you can only "outgrow" things when you're a little kid. And once you're grown, like us - no more "outgrowing" nonsense !

Dman,
I bet that was a fun ride along the lake! I'm from Akron, but I also travel up to Mentor on the GZ to visit family - maybe I'll see ya on the road up there sometime. I've wanted to ride up along the lake from about Mentor to Geneva - thought that would be a good ride.
Doug
