I have handed over the running of the club to Tony Boydston. Bill, Bill and will always be the founders but I needed some time.
He hasn't decided if he will be called pres, grand poobah, or his scooterness but assured he will figure this out.

We came, we rode, we saw, we ate


10/21/2012
What a great day for a ride. And we came! Attending were: Dave Hawk, Allison and Scott [Dave's daughter and soninlaw] Roger and Sandy, Jim Coleman, Jeanne Anne, Tony, Mr. Bones, and me.
Tony took us on a city tour checking out all the vistas, then to Green LIfe for pizza. We talked that next week we'l meet on Sunday at the DD on East Brainerd so we can ride out that way.
Once again the Zombi Candi was closed BOO!
Again next Sunday DD on East Brainerd Rd. 1:30

And there was a RESURGENCE IN ATL















The Fossils went to Resurgence in ATL; Tony and Lucy, Sandy and Ralph, and Mr. Bones and me. We went Saturday  morning for the city ride. There were about 50 bikes. There were two of my favs, the Black Jack by Genuine. Of course there were the old standards and lots of new twisters. We met at a KrispyKreme shop with lots of viewing. Anne Price and Derrick STanley from Terminal were there as was the Breakfast sponsor, Floyd Grimm from Vespa Marrietta.
Tony went on the ride, the parade in 5 pts, and the gymkhama and he and Lucy stayed until the wee hours of the morning but alas Tony didn't win best bike of the raffle Lammy.

And the winner is.....



Well you'll have to decide for yourself. Is it Tony Boydston who won the Dub's first annual [I hope] scooter contest or FGM who won ....could it really be Jack?

Your comments will decide the real winner.

10-06-2012 Parade pix! and new club [gang] updates


WE had a blast last Saturday! Jean Ann, Mr. Bill, James Killian, and me. At least some of us have a parade to our name.  Next year we're invited again.

This coming Saturday's meet-up at DD will be our last there until Spring.  Saturday workers have been begging for Sunday rides and, it's getting colder so a later time will be more comfortable.

Starting Sunday, October 21st we will meet at DD at 1:30 .  We have some color cruise rides planned and a weekday ride to the sock factory in Cleveland to get our cheap cheap cheap Smartwool socks[$2 per pair]. they have Car-hart and others. Never know what'll be there.  And as a special treat stopping at Scoops and Burgers for the one and only grape ice cream.  Way better than it sounds. Just like Nehi grape.

So come one come all to this last Saturday ride to Spring.

Auguest 18, 2012 UP UP the mountain

This past Saturday the ride started , as usual, at Dunkin.
We have new members:
Tim and Melissa Brooks-Welcome!!
They ride Honda PSX 150. Some sweet rides...so quiet  but firm on the road. Their daughter came too but I don't know her name.

They joined Bill Levy, James Killian, Jim Coleman, Dave Hawk, and Tony Boydston. I didn't go.
I had told Tim if I led the ride we would go up Roberts Mill and down the W. So...Tim led the ride up Roberts Mill and down the W.  Great fun for all













WE miss you on the rides.

Catching up Ride of 8-11-2012

We have a new photographer  YEA!
James Killian brings along his camera and video on many rides. So here is what he caught on this ride.
Bill Levy, me, Jim Coleman and James caught this ride.Bill thought he had found a new way to the ridge but it was just partially new. So we went up and caught the beauty of the ridge then road down on Shallowford.  Of course once the Civil war came up and cannons....guess who was all aglow.

















We miss y'all and hope you start again when the weather cools.
