8 Scooter Hooligans
« on: October 10, 2020, 04:51:52 PM »
Into our coffee village yesterday with my daughter for lunch and shopping and "people watching" (my daughter)...and met a bunch of scooter riding folks from Columbus and Akron, OH.
Friendly group of guys and gals who were here on their first visit to Yellow Springs.

SYM, Vespas, Buddies, and even a white Liberty S.
 A lady rider told my daughter that they are not so much a 'club', rather just a bunch of friends who call themselves Scooter Hooligans.




More scooters than I've seen since my Vespa dealer closed - it was amazing!
It was great to talk scooters with someone for the first time!

PS: my daughter mentioned that there were a lot more people taking photos of these scooters  than when a group of motorcycles park in town.

Traffic department planners take note: That's 8 scooters in one car parking space!

Part of the solution, not the problem?

I watched them set that up. So close together it had to be done one at a time, in order.
Vespa owners were a little "yumpy"....with it all😊
I kicked myself afterwards for not asking, "any Kymcos?" To see their response to the brand.
I was too excited to think straight. ...
So many fellow Martians in one place!
