A few co-workers razz me about riding my scooter, but hey, I have fun on it and enjoy every day I have on her.

Several guys at work drive Harley Davidson's and when I told them I was interested in a scooter, they had no idea what to think. I little jab here and there and then I played along and told them I'd put a sticker on it "Baby Harley". Then I thought better. Really though they've been pretty supportive that there is just another rider out there. Took at little ribbing today with the pic below. Believe me I hand out shovels full at times so getting it back is just part of having fun at work. I thought it was funny and it just shows the American perspective on scooters (of course not by everyone, we know that). Don't take it too serious cause the guy who sent it to me has offered to come over and ride with me and my Super 8 150 and him on his HD anytime I want.










That picture kills me every time I think about it. Funny stuff!

I do not care what anyone says, but us scooter folks have just as much fun as the motorcycle people do. In fact my scooter club, the Nevada Scooter Brigade, had some visitors on Cinco De Mayo 2014 from the Sky Island Riders Scooter Club out of Tucson, AZ. The more we talked the more we found out how quite a number the members had more than just one bike. At least a few had 5 scooters. They ranged from the small 50ccs to the 300cc maxi scooters. We even discussed how scooters are so much fun and enjoyable to ride. Some of the members of the Sky Island Scooter club were on town on their way to Zion National Park up in Utah. A good time was had by all. Were just as much man as those ride motorcycles are. I look forward to seeing those scooter peeps again when they are in Vegas. 8)

Scooters ARE more fun. Just the word is pretty funny. ;D
