Scooter Scooters Everywhere
 
Was wondering my fellow members how ofter do you see other scooter riders in your area. Not motorcycles just other scooters. Just was wondering cause I do not see many where I live in Metro-Detroit. Everyone likes their Chevy/Chryslers/Fords. Well at least I will be the only one :scoot: around town

I see a lot of bikes and scooters here in Florida. Of course we have a year round riding season too. :cheers:

here in miami, its always riding season due to the weather, i see scooters everywhere in miami and especially south beach. i havent seen a ruckus yet or havent seen a modded gy6 yet as well. the problem is that there isnt alot of scooter mechanic shops. thats the down side and thats why im doing all my scoot jobs myself

As cold as NY State can be, Fla. can be just as hot. I've baked on my rides for many a year down there. Once my CX 500 overheated in Orlando while I was stuck in a jam on I4...

In N Carolina, we get the hotness and the coldness-- The worst of both environments. LOL

hardly less than two on a ride to or from work, usually around 5 or 6, though. And that is rain or shine in Vegas.

Lots around here! Most don't wave back though, there are a lot of snobs in this city.

However, I did recently go to a scooter club meet, we had 40+ riders there and some really cool custom scoots!

Raleigh has a lot of scooters zipping on by the cars, but most of them don't have plates on them, so they are the 50cc types...

All depends on the temperature. 70*F and above they start coming out of the wood work.
50*F and below only those with no other option ride.

I work at a university so I see quite a few scooters in the summer. Students find it cheaper to ride their scooters than a car for the short distance from their apartment to school.

I see that quite often in scoots compared to cycles. We don't have the sense of a community among scooters yet. That's why we have forums and clubs and such to bring scooters together. Funny, though, I have seen Harley riders acknowledge scooters with waves. Who'd have thunk it???
