I thought I would go ahead and start the thread
When I get them together, I will also post a link to a gallery of my GoPro shots and video.

Best,

Its like the 2 for 1 print special at Fotomat.

Now you're aging yourself.

(yup sometimes does that from iPhone postings)

Once again... great to see pictures (and they are truly great pictures). But for those of us who are from out of town, a little help identifying the people in the photos would be appreciated.

[and no, you don't have to ID the people in the mob shots. ]

Two more

From left to right lovely woman I don't know, Megamod and her husband Jack,
my wife Sylvie and our little Italian Greyhound, Gelasio.

Ha-ha!! So I did see Knight Train...That "Lovely woman" on the left is my wife Leslie. Too funny.

A new friend made and unknown. Maybe I'll see you today!!

In the forefront is "Tito" and to his left and slightly behind is "Jimmy
Two Nutz".

Gutsy move mounting the Go Pro camera with just the suction cup and no lanyard/tether.

Trepp, never thought of that.

But actually it gets better. On the first day, we stopped at this quonset hut out in Barrett Junction for its famous "Fish Fry" (hence the name of the ride, "Fishing Trip"). That same fearless rider, left his keys in his bike and in the "On" position. Thankfully, bike was still there as were the keys and it ran fine thereafter.

Met "Tito" and two of his friends from his "Orange County" riding group. Andrea and Rick. Both were very cool.

thanks you guys. keep em coming.

This is a great pic! It sure would have been nice to be there...

Names...we need names!

Next years location ?

Bill x

New Orleans.

With some folks. Guess which one's me

At the park we got kicked out of

Man... Sorry I missed this one! Looks like a great time, and a gorgeous day, in the perfect park setting.

Yup. Even considering we were only there 15-20 minutes before we got the boot

It was still a blast.

73

Sure was. And with a happy ending at Vespa Motorsport. Nice eats, drinks, and raffle. Lots of good conversation surrounded with scooters and scooter accessories.

That's me on the left with MV legend Jimmyb865
Um, this answer is useless w/out the visual...

I'm on the left, with MamaMonkey and Husband Seth.

FINALLY! I can put a face to a name. You all look like rocket pilots. Is this Amerivespa or World Fair 1961 in Seattle? Sorry for the wait there is a seductive bot online.

We got a 3x1 deal at the local barber shop.

Are you incognito an incommunicado? Maybe it is sunglasses.

Repost from the AV thread

a few from today's Sayonara ride.







till next year...



pre ride brief... "peace be with you"



This is not even a quarter of the ride participants





Uh oh. "Who is in charge here?!?"



Delivering the news that we had to break up the party....



Till next year...

My scooter and I almost feel like we ARE there. Not feeling very humble here since mine is parked outside gracefully. Still living vicariously through your travails.

Jees, even the cops in San Diego are hot.

What was their reason for breaking up the party?

It seems groups of more than 50 need a permit to use the park for a gathering. The permit has to be taken out up to a year in advance. Someone else already had the place reserved. The Scooterwest folks who planned today's picnic weren't aware of this.
The officers were also fussing about multiple vehicles in parking spaces.

It all seemed reasonable until this line. That's just ridiculous.
