Could be worse.

Much worse.

Christ alive I forgot about that.

I saw one in the wild in DC not too long ago. The guy riding it could have qualified as a schooner as much as his bike and I seriously wonder what ability he had at getting it up a hill that a Vespa wouldn't.

I sat on one. They're really quite peculiar. You sort of feel as if you're in position to have your genitals tattooed.

They were repulsive enough at the time that the dealer discouraged me from contemplating a purchase. When the guy in the Honda shirt calls it a "Do Not Order One" you can rest assured that sales will be slight.
