Ruckus


Where do I start with today’s ride…

Scooter Assassin had a get together today and I thought it was going to be a long drive but I was wrong. Today they were playing ’scavenging hunt’ which I wasn’t up for it. It was hot and I hate looking for things. But I played anyways. We all met up at the famous Bold Knight restaurant in San Jose. This place is a high class Dennys then ran around all day in San Jose and ended up at the ‘Scooter House’ while they were roasting a pig.

You know, today it was totally different crowd and I felt like I didn’t belong. It was older and pretty much everyone owned classic scooter such as Vespas. We hanged around for a bit and left. I learned one thing, even though we’re all different one thing I can say that we all had one thing in common, we all love scooters.

Well here are some fotos.

It froze on me last night but turns out that it let me upload my vid while YouTube didn’t let me at all.

Here’s the HWY 9 Vid. It seems like it’s not letting me link it to my blog… so here’s the Heavy Link. Click Here.

People that are so indecisive fucks up everyone’s time and plan. And I fucking hate that.

We were supposed to be at San Luis Reservoir to Jet Ski but since we took too damn long to make the decision we lost it. My brother even came down from SAC thinking we were Jet Skiing. My last minute plan with Steezy was to drive to Santa Cruz hitting the back roads with our Ruckus. Yes we are nuts and it took us less than 2 hours driving through the beautiful back road of Hwy 9 and old Santa Cruz Road. I have driven this road a few times with my old race car but never with a bike and if you ride your Rucks through here, you are either a crazy mofo, an idiot, or just love riding your rucks.

You guys should once drive this road with a bike, ruckus, or car. It’s really amazing and away from all the city life.

We started the ride at Steezy’s house. Our plan was to leave at 6:30am but since we’re filipino time, we started our ride at 8:30. Always fashionably late.

We can’t go riding without Magie, oh just incase I haven’t introduce you to my Navi, her name is Magie. Actually Steve LA Hardakus name her.

dscn5792.JPG

Obligatory self shot while riding!

dscn5796.JPG

Here we are at the 4 corner stop at the top of HWY 9.

dscn5797.JPG

Here we are again on top of Boulder Creek and a few random shot to some town that we passed by.

dscn5800.JPG

Breaking down sucks and no, we don’t break down. Only GY6 Ruckus and Vespa breaks down. LOL All love Stevy!

I didn’t actually break down but my license plate was hitting my tires so I had to stop and fix it.

dscn5801.JPG

DRIFT YA LATER DUDE!

dscn5802.JPG

While we were fixing my shit, I called Janice to get everyone ready to head down to Sea Cliff. If I see two Ruckus parking at a spot that has barely any parking, I would get down and throw that shit in the water. But hey! We paid to park.

dscn5803.JPG

There’s something I love about the beach but I hate the beach. It’s hot, It’s sandy, It’s cold, It’s annoying.

dscn5805.JPG

The fams finally arrived along with Party Peter and his gay brother Kevin.

dscn5806.JPG

We hate each other.

dscn5813.JPG

The troublemakers. My niece and my daughter.

dscn5815-custom.JPG

J forgot my trunks so I had to buy one at the liquor store. They didn’t have many options and I was left with American trunks or Speedo Trunks. And I’m Asian to let’s stick to the hangloose.

dscn5833-custom.JPG

There was a perfect 10 couple at the beach. At first I thought the black guy was rescuing a whale off the shore. Hey hey hey! Fat girls needs loving too!

dscn5841.JPG

Jordan. Messing. With. The. Sand. Yeah. he was.

dscn5843.JPG

Jarod - This is the cutest kid here. And the ugliest Dad. Don’t hate.

dscn5850-custom.JPG

It was getting late and we didn’t want to hit the dark going back home. Going up hill with the Ruckus f’n sucks. We have to drive on the side of the road since we’re going so slow.

Getting gas before hitting the HWY. $4.05 with both Ruckus full tank and 100MPG to go.

dscn5852.JPG

Almost home! We hit this one town and it was crazy f’n hot. I am talking about 100+ and it was only that town. Jesus hates that town because a mile away it was nice and cold. Unless Satan lives there because my skin was burning.

dscn5854.JPG

We stop a few times just for sight seeing. Just looking through the beautiful scenery that we city peeps hardly see but it’s only a few miles away from our town. We get caught up in our corporate jobs.

and I leave you guys with shitty attempt video. Tomorrow is another ride and another Ruckus.


Just incase the vid doesn’t work, DL IT here.

I wasn’t even excited about this ride after not sleeping all night. I couldn’t sleep maybe because of the excitement or knowing that I had to wake up in a few hours…

I got to Battlescooter bright and early to be exact, 6:30AM. Turns out that Steven and his boy Mando slept at BSS parking lot inside their truck. Note that I didn’t take much pics of the ride, I was just too tired to do anything.

When Jason open up his shop I saw this little moped. It looks kinda cool but ugly in the same time. Its like something a hardcore scooter would ride because its ‘different’. I’ll pass its a little fruity.

dscn5544.JPG

Everyone else came fashionably late, Tim and the Denver guys. Some of these guys thinks they are too good and one of the dude (I didn’t take pics but Im sure you can find some on TR) has this white Ruckus with DC all over it. Yes DC the shoes brand etc… I thought that foo was sponsored by DC or something. Super whack.

dscn5548.JPG

I think Stephen was the only ’stock’ looking Ruckus there. Stephen likes his shit simple and clean.

dscn5547.JPG

You know I hate anything white… especially a white Ruckus but Tim’s (Robomod) is growing on me.

dscn5546.JPG

You know when they say when one thing goes wrong the whole day will go wrong? Here’s the first one. Jason was walking out one of the moped since he’ll be riding it to the meet and the pedal hit the freakin door and knock it out! Broke some shit so he had to stay behind and wait for the doorman. And thats Binh next to the door, dude looks like he’s about to rape somebody.

dscn5549.JPG

The second thing that went wrong on the ride was Mando being a lazy fuck and didn’t get up right away. Since he was with Steve (Ruckus) I didn’t want to be a bitch and leave them behind… So Stephen and I waited for them and the rest left already.

The third thing that went wrong on this ride when Mando on his shitty Vespa broke down. His flywheel was coming off and he didn’t have any tools. So I had to go find a goddamn Kragen to buy some tools. After coming back with some tools, the goddamn thing didn’t want to start!

dscn5550.JPG

We were like little fucking dogs following his ass while he’s trying to get the goddamn thing started… Stephen and Steven was already fed up with all the wait and getting left behind. So I finally said I’m leaving so find your way back since he wasn’t that far from BSS. Prolly an hour walk back or so. I even gave him Jason BSS #’s that he can call him see if he can get pick up. All I remember that 5 hours later he was still walking being lazy.

dscn5551.JPG

All Steven wanted to do is ride the Golden Gate Bridge with a bunch of Ruckuses. That’s all he wanted to do for the weekend. Thats it. Can a nigga a dream?

dscn5552.JPG

So we were bombing, going in the middle and trying to get there as fast as we can… Steven was getting cold and he stop to put a jacket but Stephen and I kept going. He’ll catch up anyways since he has a damn fast Ruckus. Could hit 70+ easy. Then the 4th thing on this ride went wrong… His bike was misfiring, I had to go find another kragen to buy a spark plug and OIL. Still was acting up, turns out that the coil went out.

dscn5554.JPG

After fucking with it for hours of hours no luck. All Stephen wanted to do is just ride to SF. Thats it! Can a nigga dream? Since Steven is B. from Bowls LA boy I couldn’t leave him hanging… I called Jay Pizo for the rescue to get Steve on his way to SF when coming get us at Fatlace. So we left Steven at the bus stop while Stephen and I kept riding to SF! His dream is shattered! No Golden Gate Bridge for you homeboy! Since he has a Navi on his Ruckus I borrowed it on the way to SF. Shit’s bad ass! I have to get one!

dscn5555.JPG

We finally arrived at Fatlace and I saw Mark there and seems like he lost some weight. Stressing Mark?

dscn5556-custom.JPG

Ron (Reign) and Victoria was the one watching the store along with some people chillen.

dscn5559.JPG

The rental cop was being a bitch since the road was closed and we couldn’t park there. Even tho the motherfucker let his wife and kids park inside the block. We had to Park our shit inside Fatlace since I wanted to check out the Japantown Festival. This is why Fatlace has the best spot in SF! Just a block away, its the Japantown, next door has the best Japanese food in SF! You guys need to check it out!

dscn5560.JPG

There was tons of head and it’s cool seeing people coming out and supporting these kind of events. Keeping the culture alive.

dscn5561.JPG

dscn5570.JPG

I love what the guys over at Fatlace has done to the window.

dscn5573.JPG

I was trying to snap some Alrazzi fotos. Victoria and Emmy Lee?

dscn5574.JPG

And another Alrazzi foto of some chick that was walking… ok we were bored waiting for Jay so I’m trying to bore you guys reading my crappy blog.

dscn5575.JPG

And we were watching this over and over and over… shits so dope it’s in the front of the store. I saw this when Mark sent it to me awhile back but never thought he was going to use it for the store! Check out the vid and add me on heavy.com

Pay attention to details… Bikes, Skate, Ruckus, Cars, Graffiti, that’s what Fatlace is all about!

Jay and Beeznut finally arrived and we strapped our bikes before heading to Formula D Sonoma…

dscn5579.JPG

San Francisco. The coldest summer the warmest winter.

dscn5580.JPG

Steve behind the truck with a broken dream. All he wanted to do was ride on Golden Gate bridge! Thats all he wanted! Can a nigga dream?

dscn5581.JPG

We’ll make your dream come true… Just because you ain’t riding your ruckus we can still hit up GG Bridge… Put on your helmet and lets go!

dscn5589.JPG

Nigga stick your head out and feel the mothafucking wind! Let your dream come true! We were going to have him sit behind the bed on his Ruckus but too many popos. This shit was fucking funny as hell.

dscn5590-custom.JPG

We finally arrived at FD and I didn’t take much drift fotos… so I suggest you leave now because most of fotos are Alrazzi.

dscn5617.JPG

I have more fotos but I think that’s enough to bore you guys.

I got a shipment from someone that works at a big industry, cleaning someone’s floor.

dscn5470.JPG

Turns out that it wasn’t a vacuum. GYEAH! time to ride on the cold this weekend! No more freezing my ass off at SF like the last ride.

dscn5471.JPG

Jensen has tons of freakin toys. He has a 50 and haven’t drove it for awhile so he was busting some wheelies around his block. That thing is sick.

dscn5506.JPG
dscn5507.JPG

I wanted a new tailight on my rucks since I was tired of that big-o mickey mouse in the back of my shit.

dscn5511.JPG

How does it look? Thanks to Jason from Battlescooter for hooking it up!

dscn5512.JPG

Stephen was also getting ready for the ride this weekend. It’s about a 150 mile ride.

dscn5515.JPG

Oh snap! LA RUCKUS Came down to represent this weekend! Well it was only Big Steve and his boy Mando. The others flake.

dscn5517.JPG

What do I see down there… It’s a chinese motor on a Ruckus. Weak. Weak. and Weak. I’m just saying, if you are going to do a swap, do it right because I’ll be coming out with my shit next time with some REAL MOTHERFUCKING SWAP. Ok it’s fast and Im jealous.

dscn5518.JPG

Oh snap! The one and only Spoonkiller in the house! Homeboy banned me from TR and I thought there was going to be some Ruckus up in Battlescooter Store but there was none. We started talking shit and who had a better ruckus then he punch me on the face then I cried. It was nothing but gheyness talking about little 50cc bikes.

dscn5520.JPG

Instead of “lets go home and get some sleep to get ready for the next day…” we went riding and it’s about 5AM right now and I can’t sleep.

dscn5522.JPG

dscn5527.JPG

While we waiting for the Denver Ruckus guys we were chillen at Tim aka Robomod’s pad. Yes Denver Colorado. How ghey is that? Traveling over 100’s miles away from home just to do rides… Yeah super GHEY! I know we’re a bunch of homos with little scooters.

dscn5532.JPG

They finally came and they had issue right away. Homeboy had oil and fuel mixed in or some shit. They also had this other Ruckus that had DC all over it. I thought homeboy was sponsored by DC or something… LOL and yes he was white.

dscn5533.JPG

dscn5536.JPG

We tried to crash a car meet at McCarthy Ranch.
