Parking lots can be fun.

This weekend Lady Luck borrowed Baldy-Beard's scooter, and we went out for a ride together. We went about 40 miles, all told, but we were out riding for a solid two hours. Lady Luck seems to be getting over her fear of gravity (because it's just a theory), and is becoming a much better rider overall.

Anyway, I let her lead since she's on the slower machine, and she managed to find some awesome, awesome places to ride. One totally unexpected find was the driveway and parking lot for the Desert Botanical Gardens. It was twisty, hilly, and generally amusing. In a parking lot. Granted, there were people around so we couldn't push our limits too hard, but sometimes dumb fun is the best fun.

Lady Luck led me through some other highly entertaining neighborhoods, and we never really went all that fast. She apparently has a gift for finding fun roads close to home.

Now I just gotta figure out how I'm going to get her on a sportbike...
