His bike, same as mine, gets bucked badly from pre-historic rear shockies when
negotiating the crest & hump simultaniously turning into the jittery sweeping
left at the top of the hill.

behind the slick Scooterlife / Scootopia Super 9 & PMX piloted by Ben   & R1Hoon
  respectively.

Scooter Racing is certainly alive and well at Lakeside!

We had 9 bikes in the field which was great to see. There was also a great
variety from different brands to different capacities. It was great to see Tony
out on his Lammy proving the older bikes are still loads of fun on the track.
Sean and Tim were out on Daelim and Peugeot fresh from the packets and they had
a ball, now planning mods like good rubber and sure to be back. Rob and Shel had

had a few tech issues with the totally rebuilt Typhoon. Paul was blasting around
on the PMX and K-star took line honours on his 163cc Bug Agility. I had the
opportunity to throw a leg over the Super9.

We had quite a few spectators too which was great support including Jareth and
his partner Alisha who was taking some photos for her scooter culture uni work.
Everyone is looking forward to seeing those goodies.......
Judy and James made it out too (would have felt like a short ride compared to
Blackbutt) for some recon work for Jason who is planning to join the good times
with a Runner 180 2stroke.

Till next time,

Looking forward to it tomorrow. Tony will be there. I will be his backup. If
anyone else needs a hand don't hesitate to ask.

Also, what do the more experienced riders think about running a Vespa with no
front mudguard? Would it pass the test to ride?

Hi all,
a good mate of mine has just opened a new cafe on the Redcliffe Peninsula at
Margate Beach. I though all us scooterist my enjoy a ride up here and take in
the seafood and other Greek food. The shop is called "Seafood Lovers Café" and
is right on Margate Beach, it has a fantastic aspect and wonderful atmosphere
and if you close you eyes just right it is just like scootering in Italy. If we
get a bigger enough group I will see if we can get a deal.

There is a B105 scooter ridr tomorrow for those interested.

Just giving you the latest update on our Gang Rally this Thursday. The gang
house (The Hendra/Nundah Bowls Club) will be opened @ 6am - so feel free to come
down anytime and keep Number 1 company.

@ 7am -  We have a BBQ Brekkie... thanks to Ken - The Chairman of the Board of
the Hendra / Nundah Bowls Club

7:30am - Safety Briefing / Demonstration... this is compulsory for anyone who
wants to ride with us

7:45am - Scooter giveaway comp - This week on the brekkie show we have been
giving away keys - one set will be the one that unlocks the BRAND NEW SCOOTER!

8:00am - We ride!

8:45am - We reach our destination - The Southbank Parklands near the Brisbane
Wheel where it's a salute from Number 1 (MAP ATTACHED)

Dress up however you like, (as long as it abides with all transport and general
decency laws) and when you arrive you will receive an exclusive B105 flag to
wear proudly on your scooter as we travel along.



Any futher details can be found on the B105 website.

Benito scooterboy.

Ok Benito, see you then and everyone else. Will be good if there are 10 scooters
on track. There were quite a few scooters parked in the city here in Melbourne.
Down here bikes and scooters can park on any footpath.

Next full day of scooter racing is happening this sunday at Lakeside. Racing
starts from 9am and runs most of the day.
If you are interested in coming along it is free to watch and a good day out.
If you are intereted in riding on the track it is only $50 for the day and $55
for a year race licence (if you haven't got one from last time)

It is a fun day and everyone is welcome to come along for the fun and action. We
should have nearly 10 scooters on the track this time which will make for some
good viewing.

What: Small Wheels Sunday
Where: Lakeside Raceway, Lakeside Rd, Narangba.
When: Gates open at 8:30am, Rider Briefing at 9am, Practise from 9:30am.
Anything Else: Bring a hat and sunscreen(limited shade), a comfy chair and
something to nibble on.

See you then,

Benito Scooterboy

Well done Mr Bee and thanks for arranging an awesome day,

Jude and I had a great time and I'm sure James is still waxing Irish about the
day, to be sure.

Was a treat to witness Benito's fun and games with the unsuspecting CBR600RR
rider - perhaps next time the "bike cam" will have full batteries so we can have
the appropriate evidence of Ben's exploits.  You almost feel sorry for the poor
guy on the CBR600RR - especially if he happened to see himself on You-Tube...

I'll bet he was down at Scooter Scooter this morning eyeing off a GTS300.  I
understand there is a nicely run in white one there with a seat the shape of
Ben's butt!

As for the tender rumps, I have to say after sampling the perch of certain other
Italian steeds known to frequent our garage, the Nexus was a bit of an armchair.

Same again next week end anyone...

Thanks again and bye for now,

Double J's

Hi everyone. Glad you had a good ride yesterday. I'm in melbourne visiting my
sister. It sure is a long way here by road. Did it in 3 days staying in Moree
and Grong Grong (near Narrandera). Will probably be back on sunday for lakeside.
Will be interesting to see how many scooters are here in town.

Well said Mr Bee,

It certainly was testing and it has been a long time I have sat in a saddle that
long.

I had the usage of the new Vespa 300 and it was a fun and enjoyable bike but the
hard saddle really isn't the best for touring. What it is good for is fast tight
roads like on Mt Mee and Mt Glorious. The 30cc engine is a little lumpy down low
but once it spins up it is super smooth and has noticably more torque which
gives more smiles :)

It was great to ride with Jason, Judy and James. Jason is also keen as mustard
to get on the track at lakeside in the coming months. We look forward to seeing
you out there soon. I was very jealous of Kerry's sheepskin and maybe something
I should invest in. The more long rides I do I wonder how I actually rode to
Dubbo and back on a PX! Very painful.

All in all a very good ride. Thanks for organising it Mr Bee.

When the going gets tough...

Six hardy souls (and ultimately tender rear ends) tackled the journey, with a
great and uneventful run.

Benitoscooterboy, resplendent in the leathers and armed with a Vespa GTS300,
proved the nemesis of at least one sportsbike owner. If you want proof that the
modern Vespa is a bit of a hoon-mobile then ask a certain Honda CBR600RR rider,
who is probably still trying to work out what happened on Mount Mee.

James (Majesty 400) Jason (Nexus 500) and Judy (Honda VTR250; another honorary
scooter) were Scooteroo first-timers and made the day a treat. Kerry, Vespa 200
ironwoman, proved that you can go the distance and endure the pain provided
there is coffee along the way. And a Vespa topbox is a perfect place to store a
spare sheepskin rug when the saddle seems to be turning to steel.

Good conversation, no pressure to go fast and all the best of SEQ scenery. I
clocked up 358km for the whole trip and it was worth all the aches and pains
that I'm sure will be apparent tomorrow.

More! Photo to prove we did it in the pictures folder.

Hope you have a good day.. I'd love to have come with you all, but I'm off on a
business trip to Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne. I'll certainly be on the next
one. Leroy

Scooteroo does come up in Facebook.  If you search for Scooteroo, you will get
the one in SA, and then two down from that you will get our group.

Over the hill, a stop at the cafe for those as wants to, and then down the hill
and home. Probably six hours all up.

When you search for "Scooteroo" in FB the only group that comes up is a group
dedicated to a scooter-ride-tour business in Town of 1770...  this could be why
you have not had more folks join?
