Nothing special here, just a good time-waster. :) First time shooting video from my X-grip phone holder.

People in the brown jacket wanted to know what kind of scooter I was riding. He commutes on a TMax. :)

Thanks for posting the video. Nice country you have to ride around in.

That sounds like a perfect day out to me. NO people, cars or other bikes around to ruin the quiet. ;)

I think so too... I just assumed Corny lives in a crowded city... ;)

sometime I can ride 50 miles and not see another car , in the country just the odd farmer in the field, and that is 30 miles out of the capital city of canada ottawa ont. 1,000, 000 people,.

You guys are lucky I didn't get stuck at a cow crossing. :)

Looks like Ohi-er 'round there.
I tried riding in the sticks like this but the frost heaves every 20 feet just beat up my LIKE on many of the back roads. You learn which ones to stay off of - sometimes I scout in my Scion to see how bad the roads are before trying them on the scoot. I am still trying to find a smooth way to get to this little hippy village about 15 miles away. Antioch is my kind of town - full of commies, weirdos, flamed out hippies, girls with bright blue hair, Democrats, bistros, bare foot kids, fresh french bread, great coffee houses, used book stores, pottery shops....old VWs, and just friendly people. They used to love my VW bus - now I want to park my scooter on the main street to give 'em a real treat! (http://i43.tinypic.com/20zwww1.jpg)
The town has been a 'strange' little burg in the middle of staid Ohio since the 20's (full of suspected union sympathizers and communists. Oh My! I love it!) If you're ever around for their
biannual street fair, check out the pretty belly dancers.

Is the ride better on 16 " wheels vs the 12's?

Yes Stig the ride is better with the larger wheels, although it is still kinda sucky compared to a motorcycle. You just need to learn to relax and go with the flow, let your body become part of the suspension.

Oooooo, love your bus.

The cowling mounted X-Grip is fine for my phone and GPS but vibrates too much for a camera. And my phone's camera sucks. Santa I would love a GoPro.

Wrong title...
No time was wasted if you enjoyed the ride, corny.... ;)

Cosmo - THIS was pretty cool to watch!
I usually can't stand watching pavement-trees-center stripes and the occasional auto-passing-by Videos. After 20 sec you get the picture. I can get a sandwich and come back without missing anything.
But you live in The Land of Young People (all carrying stolen items in packs), buildings, stop signs (which you rolled thru) buses and SCOOTERS ..!!
Pretty darn cool! You showed the equivalent of every scooter in Ohio on your 7 min journey. THAT is absolutely amazing to me. (but then I'm amazed that they can get that apple stuff inside a donut)
Seriously cool video.
Here's a hint (maybe it's only me) but to make an interesting video, or photo, to be placed on a scooter forum ----have a DADGUM scooter in it !!
I know what the grand canyon or the Eiffel Tower* looks like - but put a scooter in front of it and I'll be interested. I will stay and look.
Duck tape the camera on the side cowl of a scooter so I can see the scooter doing its thing and I may even watch the road and trees going by for a few mins. Take the scoots out - you've lost me - and maybe some others as well. Yes? No?
Anyway, I thank you for the neat video with all that stuff and scoots in it. This is a college of some sort - or a minimum security youth prison? Yes?
And, I thought mounting the giant church organ on my LIKE was cool beans - but you've got a whole dadgum symphony in the Met-In box (whateverthehellthatis) on your scoot. Very cool beans!
Impressed, Stig
(* here's a little know fact about the Stig - the Stig's prom was on the second stage of the Eiffel Tower, in the Jules Verne restaurant)(http://i39.tinypic.com/2ynl384.jpg)

The second video was great. My dog is here with me and she is dancing on her hind legs to the music. I guess you have an doggie personality. Dogs love you. Well at least my dog does. 8)
