  • Goodbye, S2000

    With my recent move, I have been biking to work four out of five days a week. As such, the S2000 was only driven twice in a month, but still incurred a $450 insurance/loan payment… That’s pretty expensive for as much use as it was getting. The solution? Sell it. I’ve been back and forth
