SUNDAY RIDE I'm up for a ride this Sunday, Dec 14. Lets ride to the Cherokee Place mapped below. Start from Scenic City Scooter at 1:00. For those riders living to the east we can meet with them at Wolfteever Boat Ramp at 1:30 and then proceed up Birchwood Pike. All scooter riders welcome welcome, member or not.

Could this be the Fossils???

December Run? From what I've gathered the Cherokee Removal Park is located at the north end of the attached map, on the TN River. I'm up for such a ride. Travel up Birchwood Pike? This will be a cold ride and you will need to be prepared. Remember it is easy to get cool on a bike but it is hard to get too warm. Wind chill, in December weather will be brutal at 40 mph speeds. Hypothermia is a real concern. When do you want to go?

Thinking about scooting

Hey all you riders.... let's be sure to have a ride this month. I'm thinking about a ride to the Cherokee Memorial in Meigs county.Since there has been a suggestion of a ride through the battlefield in N. GA, post your comments on which ride you want.
The ride to the memorial will start for those in Red Bank at Scenic City Scooters. Then Hixson riders can join in on Amnicola highway by coming over CB Robinson bridge. Meet up will be at the Riverpark pavillion This oKay?
if this is okay meet the 58 side riders at Harrison Bay Park and then we're off to Birchwood.

So none of the ride is on large highways. Riders from northside can use the turnoff just before 153 to get to 58. Time from RB to Birchwood should be about 60 minutes riding.
Then back to Bill Levy's for hot cocoa, coffee, or tea.

Well if you don't like any of the posted ideas so far submit your own. Ride Captain Doc Tracy will review all the ideas and set us up with a holiday ride. Let's plan on an afternoon ride so we don't all freeze.

This weekend is too short of notice so would you like to join us on weekend of December 13th or 20th or right after Christmas.

Next year I want the Fossils to be in the Toys for Tots ride or plan our own.
BTW, is not the FGM so beautiful

If you know of an interesting ride East of the River please let me know. A December ride is in the planning and rides to the East are being suggested. I need suggestions.

Thanks

Late this past weekend I learned that the gift of the Buddy was from my Fairy God Mother and not necessarily from Max and Bill. Prior to this time I never knew my family had a FGM attached to it, sure I had an uncle who we used to keep an eye on, but never knew about the FGM. Well anyway I was able to capture her with my trusty cameria. So here for the first time is a picture of a FGM.

Thanksgiving/Birthday Surprize

Yesterday afternoon while visiting with Max and Bill, Max endowed me with a Buddy 125. Her reasons for doing so (other than my being a wonderful person)were so that when we all rode, we could do so at safer highway speed. I was speechless at her generosity. Max, many thanks. When I rode the machine I was amazed at the ability of the scooter to easily exceed 55 mph. Not being used to the beast I was hesitant to apply full twist at that time. Now trips on the open road can be done without the fear and trembling that 50cc highway velocity produces.

Again Max many thanks.

So where to ride to on our first December ride?

Time for thanksgiving

Fellow Fossils,

This has been a tough year for me. Since last May both of my parents have died.
Having you as scooter buddies has been what I am thankful for this year. Bill Levy and Bill Tracy are such great guys. Since starting the club we have gained 40 or so members and taken many rides around Chattanooga.

Bill, Bill, and I plan to ride through the winter starting in December. We want to ride one weekend a month. So we can start up again, emails and phone calls will be made. We will ride in the afternoons to catch as much warmth as possible. No rides in rain, sleet or snow.

I have joined the S.P.A.Z. which stands for Scooter Patrol for annihilation of Zombies. I want to be prepared. My son Ben, also a scooter rider, agrees with me. So if you're interested contact me.

Scootmoto.com has agreed to let the club link to their site. This is a small site for scooter stuff.
this is take place after the first of the year.

Finally thanks to Hugh, Kathy, Stan and Jen of Scenic City Scooters for all the support they gave us.

Peace be with you.
