I am hauling Olive up to the "cities" for the RMB rally.
I already have received the T-shirt. I bought a patch and paid extra for the scavenger hunt.
I must say that having to pay extra for EVERYTHING (patch, scavanger hunt, show-n-shine etc.) has turned off some riders here that were interested in going.

Not only will I be there, I'm helping out with the rally and leading a ride as well. This will be a very, very fun rally! I'll most likely be on the Vespa, so please come up and introduce yourself. Susan will have her Cream Buddy there as well.
There's going to be lots to do over four days. Check the website for full details.
If you're coming in from out of town and have questions about local attractions, please fell free to contact me. There's a lot of great places to eat in the Twin Cities.

OK, who else?
For the record, I am leading the Friday night ride for newer riders that haven't had much (or any) experience riding in groups. If this is you, I highly urge you to attend this ride. It will be informational as well as FUN! Just what a scooter ride should be!
We've been working on the big Saturday ride. We ran a couple routes last week and there are definitely a couple spots that will make you say "WOW."
The well-received Gymkhana is going to be a blast--as always! I can guarantee that participants and spectators alike will have a good time.
Less than two weeks and counting....

Oh yeah, almost forgot--THREE scooters will be raffled off this year. One of them is going to be a Genuine (rumor has it that it's going to be a tricked out Rattler 50).

Sorry, but I can't resist another post. Genuine and Scooterville did infact donate a Rattler for Saturday night's raffle. It has a 70cc Malossi kit and a Prima pipe. They drew the lucky ticket and..................
I now need to make space for one more scooter in my garage!
Thanks to both Genuine and Scooterville!

Thanks guys!
We had perfect weather Thursday and Friday. Saturday's Big Ride was on and off rain, but MANY scooterists braved the elements. The ride ended at Scooterville, who wisely had hot coffee waiting for us. The gymkhana went on as scheduled, although the boys had trouble keeping the Ring Of Fire (yes, you read that correctly) lit.
Sunday's ride was wet, but not as bad.
In a week, we'll start planning for 2008. Expect it to be on the second weekend of August.
And Hi to the owner of the SI with the license plate that reads OLIVE. Nice ride! Sorry we didn't get to chat.

I had a great time at RMB. Giving away 3 scooters was unbelievable.
OLIVE had never been out in the rain before. I am confident that if caught out in the rain now that I will be able to get home in one piece.
I bought a CRAVE CASE from White Castles.
Man, do i miss White Castles. Wish they were still here.
I plan on returning next year. Maybe some of the Mad Toto's will also make the trek north.
I wish more locals had shown up for the big ride. I was looking forward to being part of a 300 scooter ride.
Scooterville should really thrive at the new location. Thank you to all involved with the RMB planning. Great Rally.
