Los Angeles: Ride To The Top Of Mount Wilson May 31st

Post by Mike @ NoHo Scooters »

Get on your scooter and ride to the top of Mount Wilson. We will meet at NoHo Scooters at noon and ride up the hill via Little Tujunga Canyon road. On the way back we will take Angeles Crest Hwy to La Canada. This is a fun twisty ride. When we get to the top, there are some incredible views. This ride is for 110cc and larger scooters only. Be sure to eat lunch before the ride. There will be a gas stop before we hit the canyon.

HI Skootz Kabootz,

Great ride Sunday. Just wanted to let you know. disconnecting my running lights did solve my problem. Damn, I was so proud of my running lights.

Hey Randal

Glad we found the solution! Fun ride yesterday! My new running lights setup is working great so far for me. Just need to give it a bit more of a test of time to make sure the LED bulbs last. Check out these threads – my contributions to figuring out a solution...

Dead Lights Mod = Dead Battery...
LED Surge Prtectors...

Feel free to PM me if I can help at all.

Cheers.

Wish I could have made this one. Next time!

The pics look great. Good to see Buddys other than Justin's and Adam's out on one of our group rides!

We've already had a request to do this one again. I'm thinking our next big ride might be all the way up the Angeles Crest to Wrightwood.

YIKES! Rocks in the road! That looks like a fun ride. Makes me wish someone had had a camera for our Palomar Mountain ride!

Great video Mike! What kind of camera are you using and how did you mount it? I'm hoping to have some kind of video set up for the San Jose ride.

CRAP! I had one of those but couldn't get it to mount so I gave it to my niece. Those are cheap (affordable) enough though.
