Since there is so many many scooters in Greenville I would like to get together for a cruise one weekend . Im up for anywhere since I have a 150 , but if many 50 riders want to join then we can decide on somewhere 50cc friendly rather than Caesars Head etc . I love to cruise up Paris Mountain as its not overwelming like mountains in western NC can be . Plus the gas station at the bottom is ethanol free woohoo . How about a downtown cruise since 50s are not highway safe . It would be cool to see a large group like those Harley riders, except we do not have their thunder , grrrr .
Riders should be sober and full gas tank and a helmet is suggested but up to ones self . Safety is important so I ask all to be safe so we all will enjoy it instead of seeing someone wind up in an ambulance .
Those with a 150 or bigger we could organize a mountain trip like up to Brevard NC or simply go down Hwy 11 and enjoy the scenery .
So anyone interested please reply in this thread so we can get together on where and when . Please note if your scooter is a 50 or not as a mountain trip may be too much strain on them , but we can still cruise Main St or where ever

I'm down! I'm east of you in Rock Hill, not sure how long of a scooter ride that is. One problem for me though, I cant do anything on the weekends as I'm a bouncer at a bar and thats when I work mostly. Although I think with a week or more notice I might could get it off. I'm a bigger guy sitting right now at about 270lbs running on a 150, so I probably could make it up the mountain but you lighter guys might have to stop and wait up for me. Lol

Absolutely. What days of the week are good for you? We have 150s, so we can go on the big roads. Ours also run 60mph+, so a trip wouldnt take long down there. How many riders do you think you could get together from there?

That sucks.. But 1 guy here wanting to is running a 50cc, running around 55 or so. My dad and I build/modify scoots as a hobby. BTW, is yours a 2 or 4 stroke? And we have 4 people wanting the ride. Where are you thinking of running to?

Just wondering if anything has ever come together with a ride? I am always looking to ride and meet people and have a good time. I am in Pickens, SC on a 250CC. I think it would would be a blast to get together as many scoots as possible, especially in this perfect weather right now before it gets just to darn hot. Lets make it happen!!!! ;D I might even be willing to fill up the first 3 to 5 scooters that the riders show up wearing helmets, with gas to start the ride. (max. 3 gallons ea. and only what goes in the scooter.) No cheating and bringing gas cans!!! Let's do this!!!!!

What ever you think would be a better gathering place? I just kind of pulled that spot out of my a....I mean out of my hat. Any where in that area I think would work just fine.

How about here: maps.google.com/maps?q=34.833092,-82.498205&hl=en&num=1&t=h&z=17 I think this should be a fairly easy place to meet. I hope we can get a bunch of people to show. I would love to make this a regular this. I was even thinking about riding from there up into table rock and maybe having a BBQ at one of the parks in that area.
