Oh me....I really didn't want to miss sending up a photo this week, but it's really hard to get a bunch of scoots in one place unless you're attending a rally or something. At least for some of us "old foggies". I don't hang out with the young'uns a lot, so I'm sorta left out here on my own.

Oh well.....maybe next week!

Sweet pics!

Just noticed: I don't know how many of you actually play poker, but since when does a full house beat 4 of a kind?

yeah... I know... I just figure that 5 was a harder pic to get than 4 scooters.

We had 6 total at our meetup. Of course, it helps that there are lots of folks here on the forum who are also here in town

Unless, of course, you have somebody like sailortot cracking the whip to get everybody in line!

Ok... so where is the poker pic?

alienmeatsack · Post by **alienmeatsack** » Thu Jun 19, 2008 8:23 pm

So far only sailortot's posted hers. There were I think 2 others who were going to enter theirs as well. (Nothing from me, I was there as support/slash warm body)

I'm trying, I'm trying. I know I posted last week, but can't for the life of me remember how I did it. My pics are loaded from the camera to my computer, but I have to figure out what comes next.

OKBubbles · Post by **OKBubbles** » Thu Jun 19, 2008 8:44 pm

Well THAT didn't work! I'll keep trying.

No...gotta fold'em this week. Scoot just went to get it's 2000 mile service and I'm headed outta town for the weekend. Won't even have a chance to get a jump on next week's hunt.

Well, maybe when I return on Tuesday I can get in on next week's action. Keep 'em coming. There's some great pics this week.

How about 3 red and 2 blue - or 3 50's and 2 150's??

Check out my Pamplona - no blue walls anymore and she has a nice new chrome rack!

Thanks to this site, she's also sporting a halogen headlight (it's much brighter!), all new turn signals, and both the OEM and DOT turn signals work.

Very nice photo! I guess it would be 3 red and 2 blue since the Pamplona is a 150...

What the devil is that thing in the background with the new scoot on top? It looks like a crusher or something.

Run!!

Holy crud! I didn't even see those other scoots up there! (disregard other post...)

KRUSTYburger · Post by **KRUSTYburger** » Thu Jun 19, 2008 11:52 pm

Well, I rode around for hours today in the searing
heat as a last resort to get a pic for this week.

No such luck

. I really wanted to participate in this
scavenger hunt EVERY WEEK! I tried. I really did.
The only other scoot I could find was my dad's red
Helix which has no similarities to mine whatsoever.
I just wanted to contribute.

How about a point for high card

...

(Please don't give me negative points,
I'm not trying to pass it off as a real entry.)

brape · Post by **brape** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 12:10 am

Turns out there was a mass conn fusion meeting tonight, full house for me 12 points

Gigantic picture with no writing is here.

I have close ups of all the name badges on all of them.

afriendofcheese · Post by **afriendofcheese** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 1:17 am

Squeeking in at the last minute again. This one just happened by accident when I went to get lunch today. Because it wasn't planned, I had to use my camera phone so excuse the poor quality! I'm posting two just in case the 5th Buddy isn't visible in the first pic.

Full House! 12 points - 3 modern vintage style scoots (2 Buds, 1 Vespa) and 2 sport style scoots (Rattler and Key West)

Howardr · Post by **Howardr** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 2:13 am

One pair of 150cc scoots and I'll raise you one H-D.
What's that 2points?

ScootLemont · Post by **ScootLemont** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 2:26 am

wow.... 4 people post up on the last day
are you kids holding out on me?

Great pics!

<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/orangebuddy ... 9378"><img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/orangebuddy125/SFs ... C02280.JPG" /></a>

two orange scooters three non-orange scooters or 2 orange scooters and three genuine scooters or two orange scooters and three buddy 125's or two buddys with windshields and three without or two scooters with whitewalls and three without...

full house= 12 points

aerogirl7 · Post by **aerogirl7** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 2:57 am

Had to have my camera adapter overnighted to me (left it in Ohio) so I could upload my pic...but here it is just in time.

Full House: Either 3 Hondas and 2 green scoots...or 2 Hondas and 3 green scoots...or 3 maxi scoots and 2 modern vintage (buddy and vespa)
So many possibilities.

This was taken during last weekend's ride with the Gem City Rollers

StacyB · Post by **StacyB** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 3:06 am

This is from the Chicago Rockers vs Mods. Not sure if I get any points, but I think it's a kinda neat pic.

There a group of Ruckus' (Rucki?), and also some vintage scooters. I honestly don't know kind they are (other than the Vespas).

KRUSTYburger · Post by **KRUSTYburger** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 3:17 am

Okay, sorry I'm prolly getting annoying by now...

I know this doesn't count since it's a couple weeks old, but I was wondering how many
points it would've been worth. 4 Italian scoots (MP3, GT200, GT, P125X)=9 points.
Plus 4 Honda Reflexes=9 points. 18 points?

Or 3 Vespas and two Red scoots=12 points. Plus 4 Reflexes=9 points, for a total of
21 POINTS?! Sweet! ...or do you only get one hand?

also, you can't see them behind the yellow reflex, but there are 2 green Genuine scoots, my Italia and
a Roughhouse. Also not pictured: Metro, Vino, & Stella.

is your scoot in the picture? if so, its worth something.

OKBubbles · Post by **OKBubbles** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 3:23 am

OK - I've gone to Flikr. Let's see if this one works!

Full House: 2 Buddy 125s with rear baskets, 3 Buddy 125s without rear baskets. In case it doesn't show up real well, one basket is on the second orange Buddy from the left -- plus the big brown basket on Bubbles (my baby blue darling!)

Woohoo! I think I snuck in just under the wire!

Ooops!!! I guess I didn't see that in the rules... My scoot is like 2 blocks ahead of these scoots. It was like 3-4 blocks of scoots and motorcycles. My avatar is my scoot at the event later in the day when most everyone had left.

Here's another pic... Just for fun!!! Not entering twice!!! Looks like 2-3 Stella's, and then some other scoots.

Well technically the rules, this week, didnt say your scoot had to be in the pic so I think StacyB gets the points

Points at the close of week 3 (let me know if I made a mistake)
