Awesome.

I posted earlier that I thought the ATGATT People would be upset over Aprilia the ad on page 1 (opposite the inside cover).

Back page makes up for it.

This magazine?

Man, I am liking this forum more and more. I didn't know there was a magazine!

It's easy to forget - the last two issues were late. We need a good, monthly scooter mag. I read all the motorcycle mags, but the world could do with one less for a good scooter mag.

Stop by a Borders/Barnes & Noble/Fry's Electronics. Many of those carry Scoot!, but I've not yet seen the most current issue in PhxMetro.

It's a 4 hour drive to the nearest of those for me. So that won't work.

Boy oh boy.

I split several posts off from this thread and killed them for a number of reasons, the main one being that if someone wants to start a flame war, they should do it in a new thread instead of an existing one because it's easier for the Mods and I to deal with it that way. (How's that for sarcasm?)

Here's the nut: Postings Guidelines. Read and obey.
Yes, they need some revision, but they're still the law of the land around here. If you have a problem with a post or another member or any other sort of complaint or suggestion, message me with your concerns. If you feel like the Guidelines are being violated, use the Report Post button (Image).

Now, I'm headed to Barnes & Noble to find Scoot #46. Don't break anything while I'm gone.

It's not on the Genuine site yet, but the sometimes post their print ads here.

When I was out and about today (long 3 hour ride... got lost out in the middle of America, but found Route 69 and that led me to home... anyhow, while I was out I picked up the latest Scoot! and Scootering mags. I scanned the back cover (really cool ad by the way) and here it is!

Is she giving a peace sign or something else? Looks more like a british insult! :D :shock:

I saw this when I was at the dealership today. I was pointing it out to my husband ("Hey, this is that girl on that message board who's riding all over") and one of the sales people overheard me. "You know her?" It made me laugh... I've read a few posts by Alix and suddenly I "know" her. :)

No problem at all on the scan.

Stonehouse, there's a difference here to point out and it's all on where your palm is facing!:

But isn't her palm NOT facing outward in the photo?

Oy, good point... I honestly didn't look up and double check before I replied. I guess my mind just turned the hand around without thinking about it when I first saw the ad!

So.. yeah, I'm heading off to my corner! :oops:

Isn't it just kind of a variation of "the wave?"

As established, I'm mean and don't wave so I wouldn't know... :P

Its as close as the wave as it is to a peace sign.....The ad is cool though :)

This is not Britain. We'll take our peace signs however they're doled out!

Wasn't the Churchill sign was a "V" for "victory"? So not quite the same thing anyway.
