xaq_the_aereonFinally found out today what was wrong with my scooter, in a very strange way. How did I find out? Someone else had an accident.
Allow me to elaborate. This stupid blonde lady (I shall explain the well-deserved insult in a bit, so don't go biting my head off yet) got slammed into from behind on a bridge by the Metro Station I was going home from. Said bridge, under repairs, is down to 1 lane. This lady was fine, her car was fine, everything was AOK aside from some visual damage. She should've moved the car off out of the middle of the entrance to the bridge's only lane to the curb not 100 feet away.
Note my use of SHOULD HAVE. What did she do instead? SAT THERE LIKE A DAMNED IDIOT. She was apparently afraid the cops would arrest her for leaving the scene of an accident by moving her car despite it being within spitting distance. Literally. Seriously, I tested that theory while clearing my throat.
So how this accident revealed to me what was wrong with my scooter? Easy...I put my light-weight 2-wheeled vehicle's huge advantage to use: I shut it off, hopped off, and walked it along the bridge's sidewalk. HA HA, SUCKERS.
As I walked, I noticed a familiar clunking noise...the same one I hear while driving. That's when the pieces started falling together...
I have something loose in my back tire. An easy fix. Hopefully.
