Since the Saturday late afternoon ride was canceled due to the rain, they decided to have a make up ride to Signal Mountain on Sunday morning. Not too many twisties, but the 20% grade hairpin turns were a bit hairy on some parts. The first one we hit, there was a car on our side of the lane. The view was over Chattanooga but not much to see- wish it was a bit clearer.

Amerivespa: Day 1
We got into Chattanooga today for Day 1 of Amerivespa 2008. The meet and greet and Walnut Street Bridge was pretty cool. Free beers and free pizzas. People parked up front. I really liked the metallicy shiny ones.
I really wish I had Alex with me now.

Country Roads
There is nothing like going on country roads. Scenic, lonely, and full of wild animals. We were ecstatic to see wild horses, open range cattle, birds, and kamikaze jack rabbits.
Unfortunately for Mike, one of the jack rabbits took him down Saturday Evening. The GTS has been totaled and he has road rash and a broken rib.

Oyster Run
Quitters Scooter Club had their first ride on Sunday to Tomales Bay for a BBQ and oyster fest. 7 of us met up in the south bay and rode up to the meeting point in SF which was Cafe Trieste in North Beach. Pretty cool seeing lots of scooters overtaking the parking spots and sidewalks.
It was a beautiful day. The ride up to Tomales Bay was pretty chill, not too technical. We turned lots of heads going through SF, Sausalito, Point Reyes etc. SF Bay and the bridges were beautiful. Tomales Bay was really nice.
Gps tracked route here.

1 year ago today (07/07/07) I purchased Alex from SJ Vespa. Though technically, her birthday is on the 11th (when she was delivered). Its been an interesting year. 3088.3 miles. We've been to Las Vegas, Hoover Dam, SLO, Mt Hamilton, Mt Diablo, Mt Tamalpais, Santa Cruz, etc.

Look what I found!
I haven't seen many scooters out in Calgary. I once saw a daring plum vespa- but only just once. Imagine my surprise to see a cop on a mp3 500 during the Stampede parade no less.
