Informal Scooter ride

I just returned from a short little scoot with some other folks who appear to have a little informal scooter club that meets on Wednesday evenings here in Lancaster just to swap stories, chat, and look at each others' scooters. We met at a gentleman's house where he has five(that I could see) vintage scooters in various stages of repair.

I was glad when Gerry from Scoot Lancaster showed up. I was starting to wonder if I was going to be the only person there with a 50cc. He came in on his Yamaha C3. I finally got a chance to look at it up close. It's a nice little scooter, and it's a bit bigger than mine.

I will say, you know you've got the smallest scooter at a gathering when someone calls your scooter "cute."

All in all, it was a great little ride. We scooted over to the Friendly's in Centerville to enjoy some ice cream. Gerry and I were on our little 50's and the three other folks who went on the ride all had 250's. I must say, I wish I could afford a Vespa. I was really impressed by the clean lines and classy styling of those scooters.

Well, I'm still lookin' forward to Saturday. Here's to hoping we don't get rained out!

  2. The ride should be about 3 hours. We'll probably be done by 2 or three o'clock. Of course, if you need to break off early, that's fine too.

    As for the group that meets on Wednesdays, e-mail me at psscootinfool@gmail.com.
