Scary Mopeds

Whilst on holiday I had the (mis)fortune of bombing down a road at about 8 in the morning on the back of a moped driven by a rather nice person who gave me a lift. I'll say right now that it is probably one of the seemingly fastest rides I've ever had, but it was scary nonetheless.

Comparatively, a car feels invincible. This is a feeling that is quickly changed when in a crash, but still, I'd bet it feels a lot more safe than being thrown tens of feet from a glorified rollerskate on wheels. Nonetheless, bikes aren't my thing. I'm not quite sure I'd want to repeat it either. It sure was an experience though.
