Let's see who wants to go and where they live, seems like most of the group is east coast. Although lebanon area would be great for me

We are here in Bowling Green Ky. Kinda central. Pretty good place. Lot's of country roads, lot's of good places for eating and consuming beverages, plenty of lodging including 2 campgrounds, as well as the home of the Corvette, and close proximity to Mamoth Cave. Check it out! :)

@Sanmar: I have been to the Vette Museum, and went spelunking through Mammoth.
Great times. xD

Awesome! It's a nice area.

I'm afraid Lebanon has a lot of sandy roads and dust paths, instead of asphalt.

Just an Idea for the ride
 
Been looking into places to ride, more than just the meeting spot.
I think meeting somewhere around TN might be best for most.
South of Knoxville TN, is a town called Maryville, TN. I have been told that its a nice town, especially for bikers.
Following US 129 takes you down and amazing trail that bikers come from every state to ride. Its called the Tail of The Dragon. 318 curves in 11 miles. Through the Smokey Mountains. At the end is a town called Robbinsville, NC. 60 miles of awesome. :scoot:

If one might want to ride more than that, only another 90 miles and your in Asheville, NC. A great place to visit. Called Beer City for obvious reasons. :cheers:

Anyone have any input?... :(

epyon96r 08-22-2013 08:22 PM

roughly 9hundred something miles away from me...youtube vids looked like fun, unless you get stuck behind semi....

techie610 08-22-2013 08:44 PM

How many riders around your area, epyon?

Guest_3 08-22-2013 08:55 PM

It would be a 2 or 3 day trip for us. 818.3 mi, 12 hr 18 min driving.

Dee would get the sh*t beat out of her on that long of a ride.

Her scoot is only 150cc and half the size of mine. :scoot:

Ive only seen three riders in my area(Pasadena), not much of a scene here. But if I take a 20 mile scooter trip into some of the more metroish houston areas (downtown,midtown,heights), Its not that bad, scooters and mopeds are fairly common, along with a couple of dealers. There is a scooter club in Houston that ride a couple times a month, although I have not rode with them as of yet.

If the meetup was here in houston, Im sure there would be plenty of things we could do. Although Houston traffic is full of rude people who just dont give a hoot. cutting people off, not using blinkers. Maybe somewhere outside the city...

Im afraid its not going to be much of a Scoot Dawg Rally if we don't have more people getting involved. :(
I am attempting to get a small hotel or B&B in the Asheville area to support us with a few rooms. So far, not much luck. :(

Just back from spending 5 days in Asheville for a tennis tournament. Nice area, tons of things to do, lots of scoots around. Prob would try to trailer our scoots from here to ralley there. It's about a 6 hr drive from BG Ky.

Guest_3 08-27-2013 12:38 PM

I think its because we all live so far a part.

Nobody wants to travel a million miles, while some only travel ten feet to get there. :hehe:

epyon96r 08-27-2013 02:02 PM

Its understandable, some scoots might not make the drive.. some people don't have the mney(like me), that's why we planning early right? Whoever is interested, we can do something.
