Wedding Proposal With A Buddy!

Mike @ NoHo Scooters · Wed Apr 01, 2009 1:12 am

Don't know if anyone posted this video before. Guy proposes to his girlfriend after giving her a Buddy for Xmas. Anyone know these happy Buddy owners?

hehe, yep that would be GypsyAngel and I.

Want to know whats even more ironic that you just posted this today. We are getting married tomorrow on April 1st.

Here's more pictures and the video - http://www.bluelghtning.smugmug.com/gal ... 5292_DaSbj

The proposal video. Cute story. Her mom was in on it and knew I was going to ask her. I got her mom to ask to take pics of us on the scooter, but she was really video tapping it. Her mom and I set it all up in about 5 minutes over IM while Sarah sat next to me on the couch! It worked out perfect.

And here's her ring! Fits perfect doesn't it!

This was her Christmas day with her new gear and the new scooter

Wow! This is fantastic! The video is cool enough, but to have it be two fellow MBers... well that takes the cake!

CONGRATULATIONS YOU TWO!!! Have the most fantastic day tomorrow. My sincerest wishes for a lifetime of happiness and fun scooter rides together! I will sound my scooter horn long and loud in your honor tomorrow.

And this is our garage, although I only have one Blur now. My brother bought the 2nd Blur from me.

And all 3 scoots when I had both Blurs

Way to go. Looks like a few bike shops I've passed through.

I don't think it would have ever crossed her mind to give you the ultimatum its 'me or the bike' talk.

I love the pic of the pretty little pink Budette between the guys. Truly a Rose between two thorns.

Your garage has more bikes than some scooter shops I have seen. Impressive!

HOLY CRAP - I thought I had a problem

Congrats on the engagement, scooters and the happy couple!!

when we were dating/engaged I told people we were getting married in May - May the day never come

We did it anyway 31 years ago. Would not have thought of April Fools day - brave couple.

All the best to you both and all of you little scooter riders in the future

Thanks everyone.

We are so both very excited and to say I found my soulmate is an understatement. This last Christmas was so much fun buying all MC related things for her!

Today's the day also!

We'll be sure to post pictures and a ride report from our upcoming honeymoon bike trip. We are just doing a short 7 day 2500 mile trip to AR and LA starting next Monday. However, in June, we are taking 2 weeks and riding out West and going all over the Rocky Mountains.

Happy Wedding Day! and Congratulations! Is that all you have in the garage...Ha Ha. What a nice collection. By the way in August My favorite riding companion and I will be cellebrating our 29th Anniversary. Jill rides a Pink Buddy and I ride a Red Buddy. Just another sign that Scooter Families last a long time.

Just an update, but Sarah and I got married on April 1st as planned and then celebrated our reception on April 4th with friends and family. We just got back from a 7 day 2200 mile bike trip from GA to New Orleans, then a couple days in NW Arkansas playing around in the Ozarks, and then came home. We had a great time and really enjoyed ourselves.

We'll be sure to post pictures and a ride report when we finish that up.
