took a ride around the city, and then went to the Party.
Lots of Mod/Scooter people. Saturday night was a club/party called Lucky Charms, mostly all scooter people. Went for a wild ride in the pouring rain afterwards, ended up drinking down at the pier. Tonight I am going to a Secret Society meeting as a guest. I think I may try to join.

Met up with the guys from Secret Society at the cable car diner on Geary, had a bite, then took off for the meeting. Talk about embarrassing! My damn exhaust pipe fell off twice on the way to the meeting, and I ended up not going.
I talked to xxxx, he called to see why I did not come to the meeting. I told him about the exhaust pipe deal, and he said,
no sweat. Scooter people know about breakdowns. He thinks I should still come to the next meeting. So after looking at my Scooter in the light, it turns out my exhaust stub clamp was cracked. that's why it seemed tight, but kept falling off. unfortunately, the clamp is welded to the pipe. I got a new (used) pipe in good condition, and now my scooter runs better than before. Blessing in disguise, I guess.

There was a ride over the weekend put on by The Lazy boys scooter club, about 25 bikes. There was no patch, but it started at Mel's drive in, so I bought a Mel's Pin for my Bomber Jacket.
