Sam Kronick is the first person I knew who had a moped and I saw pictures of his Bravo and thought it was pretty cute. Then Tim (treehugger) gave me a ride on his orange Mobylette a month or two ago, he even let me drive it alone on Van Ness, and I was completely hooked. Also Rocky had moped paraphernalia all over his living room (and an actual moped in someone’s bedroom) and I thought it was pretty super neat.
Found my yellow Mobylette 50V a couple of weeks later on Ebay (I really wanted a Puch but this one was yellow, my favorite!); $150/nonrunning but started the first time I tried it. Waiting for Tim to get back and help me clean the carb, then I should be good to take on Boston!
God I love this moped, in my mind I call him French Fry because he’s French and yellow.
