Welcome Riddlin! First let me thank you for serving our country and will pray that you will be home soon. I think it is also awesome that you found the Pound.  Lot of great folks here. Looks like you will fit in just fine.  Good luck with your scooter search. Stay in touch, when you can. Scoots |

riddlin, welcome aboard. I'm a newbie too. Ordered my scoot 6-18-08 and waiting. Hope you're sipping on something cool, and found yourself a shady palm tree. I was a recruiter during "Desert Storm", but my whole unit went. I got out in '93' after ten years (82nd Airborne-All The Way!). My opinion, you'll find better deals other than Ebay. Keep up the good work, and keep us posted on your scoot search.

I hope you get a scooter soon, soldier, from what I read there was a 30% rise in imported scooters to the USA. That means prices are bound to go up! I got one, and I want another one too now. Good fortune to you!
