Can't make it on Sunday, but 9 seems a good idea to me too. The really early
starts stem back to when we were avoiding cars on the road, but the Scooteroo
crowd seems okay to just go with the flow in the mountain traffic.

Hi Kerry,

9am does seem more civilised for those chilly winter starts. I know that changing the time won't suit everyone but post you feedback and lets get the rides happening again.

Cheers,

Benito.

If people would like to ride down to Jacobs Well Pub for lunch on Sunday 5th
July, the Lambretta Club is meeting at the Stone Corner pub at 9:30am.

Would suit all size scoots, they are a classic club and have various sized
scoots. Route will be on back roads to avoid the motorways

Hi Daniel

I did a search but nothing in BNE.

I did see this link for Sydneysiders.  The "Lube Mobile" for scooters :)

http://www.scootech.com.au/

A service like this would be quite useful for many in Brisbane.

Cheers

Hey there,

I'm a journo from The Independent doing a story on people who ride scooters
because of the cost of fuel, especially since the fuel subsidy got dumped the
other day.

If you fit this bill and wouldn't mind answering some quick questions give me a
buzz on eakins@...

Hi folks,

I'd be interested in the night ride, though I can't make it this week. I like
the 50cc friendly aspect too. I'm on a 125cc scooter but I really dislike
feeling like a burden for the group when heading out with larger capacity
machines... So I'd rather stick with the 50cc guys if that's ok. =)

Best of luck on the run. Additionally I also think it'd be a good idea to have a
second meet-up point (such as Mt. Gravatt as mentioned) because many of us are
located closer to Brisbane I believe.

  - Alex.

I wouldn't be coming this week but might be interested in the future.
I like the idea of a 50cc friendly one.  Getting towards springwood on
a 50cc from nearer the city is pretty tricky because of the motorway.

Hi JR

Sure can.......more often than not the ride ends up heading up Logan Road past
the Maccas at Mt Gravatt - I would expect the group to be going past there
around 7:45pm approx, so if we're early we can wait for you.

If there's anyone else out there that wants to come along you are more than
welcome & we can plan the route to pick you up on the way.

Hi Everyone,

Scooter racing is on this Sunday at Lakeside. Numbers for this event have been
very solid with over 10 scooters racing at every meeting. We have also had more
people interested in coming along, just happy to watch the action. If you have
some spare time this Sunday take a scooter ride up to the track and see what
sooter racing is all about.

Benito

Welcome to Scooteroo Adam.

It will certainly be a chilling night for a ride :)

Benito

Hi All, new to Scooteroo but been riding for a while. Thought I'd let you know
of the regular Friday night rides I do here in Brisbane. Starting at Ikea
Springwood around 7pm there is no set destination - it's somewhat a mystery ride
& a route is chosen depending on who shows up.

We usually end up going up Mt Cootha & over the back past the TV stations -
riding in the mountains at night is surprisingly more enjoyable as you can see
oncoming cars a lot further away than during the day. And a point is made of
choosing routes that are 50cc friendly.

Anyhow - see the more adveturous of you all rugged up tomorrow night!

The date has been set, the location decided on and it's all systems go. The
Australian National Scooter Rally for 2010, incorporating scooterists from all
walks (rides) of life, is going to be held in Stanthorpe, Queensland.

Stanthorpe lies approximately 3 hours drive, or 220km SSW of Brisbane. Situated
in the heart of the Granite belt, Stanthorpe is home to Queenslands premier wine
region, boasting some 45 vineyards, wineries and cellar doors. It's also known
for being one of Queenslands coolest towns, which given the time of year, should
prove to be a pleasant weekend.

The rally will run from Friday April 16 through to and including Sunday 18, with
events scheduled for all three days. The dates have been chosen for a number of
reasons. Firstly to give those attending, what looks to be an amazing Classic
National Rally in South Australia in October, some time to build up their
strength once more. Secondly, Queensland is a humid sweat inducing sauna of a
state over summer.

We will have the new website up shortly, but till then we'll keep you informed
through the National Scooter Rally forum.
