Wow, got a few miles there! Maybe you want to put a few more on there? I met and rode with a few of the Philly guys at the NY Scooter Block Party last month, and you all should join me for some parts of my ride from New York to Pittsburgh!

Yeah, I was supposed to go to that again this year, but I got sick. Such a shame, as it's my favorite East Coast rally. Sigh.
You coming to Philly's Independence Day rally?

That is a shame, was an awesome ride! I guess just makes you look forward more to next year!
Won't make it to Philly's, going to Pittsburgh for that weekend. How about it, want to join for part of the ride? =)

No can do. This is my rally (been on the planning committee for three years now), so I kinda gotta be there. Next time.

Henry's nearing the 1000 kilometre mark so I will have to keep an eye on the odometer & my phonecam handy for the big event, or should I be going for the 999 photo

Because when I rode that scooter last month at Amerivespa, it only had +/- 3400 miles on it.

I clicked over Henry's 1st 1,000 kilometres on the way to work this morning but I missed the photo opportunity because it was dark & super foggy. I so much wanted a 1000 kilometre odometer reading photo

There are a lot of people that quite a bit further along than myself, but I don't plan on getting rid of the Buddy unless I total it. I usually do about 5k per year so at that rate all 9s would take about 18 years! Not to mention my P200 is done and so I've been riding it a lot so it might take twice as long, like 40 years!
It's still possible I would be 65.

I've seen a lot of these, but...
The coolest part is I took the pics several days apart, BUT I ended up in almost the exact same spot on the way to work for both of them... weird but cool

This isn't necessarily a neat odometer reading but we take pictures of our odometers at the beginning of the year with something that proves the date. Then we have a contest to see who had the most miles on their scooter that year!
