I'm really looking forward to this.

So is the Vespa Pizza going to start from 6.15pm or are we expecting
the actual servicing to start at 6.15pm.

That is, should we arrive earlier to eat?

And we're right to rock up a bit earlier if we are just hanging around
at our workplaces until the time?

Hey Everyone,

Just a quick reminder, Servicing night is tonight! We will kick things
off at 6.15pm and we need to start early to get through all the
servicing, tyre fitting, diagnostic system checking and workings of a
CVT transmission.

If you are after a Scooteroo sticker this will be a great time to pick
one up.

See you all this evening :)

Hi all,
Good to see so many Scooteroo's braving the cold for the early mountain
run! Look forward to the next one!
Had a little trouble keeping up with latest top of the range Ducati
Desmosedici ridden by Mr Relton AKA "The Riddler" looks like i might
have to turbo and super charge the old scoot! Uhmmmmmmmmmmm!
Regards
Joe

It was good to see everyone again after a relatively long stint off
the bike. There is nothing like a quick run up the mountain for a top
notch breakky with great company.

We also got to see(and ride with) the latest and greatest Ducati. It
is as noisy as it is scary and as it is pricy. The Italians really
know what they are doing, well that is what I was thinking as I was
following the "duke" down the mountain although a Px and a
desmosedici RR are entire worlds apart. :)

It was good to meet Sunny, we always like to put a face to a name.
Welcome along.

I am excited about the servicing night so I will catch everyone on
Thursday at 6.15pm.

Cheers,
Benito

Hi to those who were on the ride. Was my first time on a Scooteroo ride. Was a
lot of fun and
look forward to the next ride day. Also looking forward to the Drag night soon.

Sunny
Bug Hawk

Is there any way for the participants to access & add to a file or
folder the specifications of their bike(s) running on the night so
that we can see what mix of bikes will be out there?
After it's all over then adding our times from the night.

I was thinking Bike Make, Bike Year, road scoot or "track hack",
CC's, & Primary Engine Mods, Gearbox Mods, any other "go faster
mods" / significant specs.

I think it'd be really interesting to see how it pans out, submitting
our times to the file or folder.
Extra kudos to those using road scoots!

Can imagine someone saying, "Oh my bike is bog standard..... ...
except for Nos." LOL!

In my case, my wife, Shelley, & I will be on Bug Bandits, 2002/3,
track hacks, 70cc, ported Malossi Sport, c/f reeds, 10% upgear with
adjustable clutch, standard 17.5 carbi with pod filter, Giannelli
Extra exhaust.

Hey Everyone,

I am pleased announce that Mr Larry Cooke is the winner of the free
Scooter service next week. Thanks to Dr John as he was the man who
pulled the name out of the hat. We will pulls Larry's bike apart and
look at how to service a scooter on Thursday night.

If you are interested in coming but haven't put your name down please
let me know asap.

Congrats Larry,

Benito Scooterboy

Rob,
I have added a database with areas for this info.
Please have a look and we can adjust it if it isnt what you wanted.
:-)

Hey Rob,
To be honest I have no idea if that is possible but I am sure someone
knows how to do it.

I will be running a PX200E, 1997, road scoot, 209cc, polini 209cc kit,
standard trans, delorto 28mm carby with body filter, ScootRS exhaust. :)

Ben, i'll come to the servicing night too thanks. Ok Mick, see you
there.

Hi Daniel/Ben,


Looking forward to the Drag Night. Looks like I won't be out of place
if I wear a skirt!!!

I've been a little busy getting the underhouse workshop ready for to
welcome 2 Bug Jives race scooter projects ready for the next Youngstar
season at Willowbank IKT.

Jason has given me a little advice in prepping the Agility ready for
the Drag night.  I've still got it shod with Cheng Shins so should be
a good opportunity to fare them well with a good smoking
burnout.....LOL!!!
So looking forward to it. I'll make sure I introduce myself proper
should time permit on the night.

Cheers and thanks
Craig

Haven't had a chance to snip the news snippet yet (have the software ready at home).  In the meantime, here are some photos.  Unfortunately, yahoo!groups is limited in its photo display ability so please link to Aussie Scooters via the direct link below:

Hello all

As part of the Merlo Red Ride for Life, Kim and I jumped onto the MP3
and rode out with about 150 other riders to Springwood on the freeway.

It was bucketing down rain but it didn't dampen the spirits of the
riders.  We all rocked up and gave some claret for the Red Cross.

There wasn't much news coverage last year but this year, there were
three channels covering the event.

As per usual, however, scooterists were grossly under-represented and
it was only me an another couple from the Canetoads on a PX.  It's a
shame that more of you didn't turn up.  I suppose it has something to
do with it being on a Saturday.  We always seem to have stuff happening
on Saturday.

I recorded the news snippet so am trying to convert it to a size that
can be shared.

Benny et al:

Yep, count me, and Sandra, in for the July 17 evening....and a (scooter)
friend of ours (Elle) may also come, but she doesn't do pizza so don't
count her for the meal (her loss!).

Thanks for organising this event...appreciated.

Ciao, jb.
