Indian Summer 6 - Let the silliness begin!

Post by Lokky »

We got together tonight to assemble the rally packs, all I can say is that the rally fee gets you a LOT of interesting goodies!
In the best tradition of the seven hills scooter club we couldn't wait till the official start of the rally to kick off the festivities. Before the night was over I had been packing-taped and silly-stringed while wearing the official T-Rex hat. Luna in the background was laughing her ass off, what a supportive girlfriend! ;)

Looking forward to meeting any of you guys who are coming down for the rally :D

Thanks to everybody that came out to the rally, it was a real blast!
Turnout greatly exceeded expectations, we sold about 40 rally packs the first night, and sold out early the next day (we had prepared 60 packs). I still saw plenty of people grabbing an extra t-shirt or patch well after the packs were gone, I'll ask our great treasurer, Ed, exactly how many registered and give you guys a number soon.

I'll post more pics of the event when I'm done with all my work due tomorrow, any of you guys should feel welcome to share their own shots :D

You should, we'd love to have you! We're going to be meeting for the winter at Patrick Henry Pub, 7:30 on thursdays- come to a couple meetings and if you decide you want to stick around, go ahead and pay next year's due :D We've got great people in the club.

Definitely some great photos- I'll link up once I make a flikr (I know I've been saying that).

The food was fantastic, the ride was awesome and I got a few good stills, the gymkhana was fun and I got to be the timer :), the slow race was funny as crap (I think I am going to practice for that!), we and our close friends actually won some of the better prizes from the raffle (holy smokes!) and Lokky won 'Rookie of the Year' award for being his crazy self... and getting the Seven Hills crest tattooed on his chest this summer :rofl: Met some amazing people and saw some great looking scooters. I had so much fun and am looking forward to my next Rally!

BSFF, it was nice to meet you and your gal :) I hope you make it next year, too!

Yea, same to you and Lokky! Richmond has a great group of riders, and it was a blast. Also got to meet Vabeancounter and Mr. (and Mrs.) Buddy Boy. There are tons of pictures floating around on various facebook pages, we'll have to post some when we get it all organized. One of the guys from our group up north is working on a video recap, so I'll share that as well when it's finished up. See ya next year!

Saw some of BSFF's pics from the rally; looks like it was great!

I always love to see a nice variety of scoots at events like this.
Eric // LA Scooter Meetup Group // Stella 4T // Vespa LX // Vespa LXS // Honda Helix // some, uh, projects…

Funny about that, I'd met Buddyboy and the Missus a few times before and super liked them, but never realized it was him because they had the vespas every time XD

I can't wait to see the two videos... there were at least two guys filming. And I'm totally jealous of that Big Ruckus, that's a sweet ride.
