Hey all,
I just got my 125 cc Italia - Loving it!
Does anyone know any fun rides in the ATL?
Thanks,

Hey neighbor (no really, this rider is my neighbor!),
I've heard there are scooter meet ups at Thinking Man's Tavern in Decatur - it's a quick jaunt down Dekalb Ave. from us and if you're not familiar with it, I can give details. Rumor has it the meet ups are on Wednesday nights. Rumor also has it that sometimes people go on rides together from there. I've not witnessed it yet - I'm planning to go once I'm feeling like my skills are up to it. I might brave a drive to the gas station on Mooreland this weekend if you feel like a quick trip with a slowpoke. HAHA. Mama will be sooo proud of me! Watch out kids - I'll be braving RR tracks for the first time...and crappy ones at best.

Hi Applejack. I think the most fun I've had on my SI has been riding to and then around Stone Mountain Park from Decatur. If you go the long way around the mountain there are these roads with almost no one on them (at least when I was there) that are kind of twisty and fun to scoot around.applejackATL wrote:Hey all,

Check out Atlanta Scooter Society on meetup.com. They are another group that does a lot of interesting little rides, and the person doing the bulk of the organizing now (Angie) has worked in some stuff with other clubs and also with ATL Scooters. We are members (2 and 3 after our friends who started the group before Angie stepped in and ran with it), but we sadly haven't been out in a while.
I really enjoy riding around in town, Atlanta's not a bad place for scooters if you stay off the faster roads.
