This is the blog of two boys out to find their manhood while driving their 49cc Kymco scooters around the US.

49cc scooters, tank tops, no money, and two unemployed boys.
I have enough space to hold a poncho, a toothbrush, a tank top, some baggies, and a pair of flip flops. That's pretty much what I am bringing with me on Jake and I's trip around the US, on 49cc scooters.
This dream sort of started as a joke, as does most crazy adventures. "We should take my scooter tandem to Gainsville" Jake says. I told him I was down to do it. Then it kind of morphed into me buying a scooter from craigslist and a week and a half till we leave to attempt a US circle. Uhhh....WTF!
We are either leaving on July 1st or July 9th, depending on Jake's Bahamas/passport situation. We don't really have a goal for the trip besides the usual of not to die. We do however know that we get 70ish miles per gallon from our one gallon tanks, our top speed is 40 mph, and we are going to be flipping a coin whenever faced with forks. I'll be posting photos as much as possible and you can also track our trip here.
