For all you folks in South Florida: ====================================== I-95 and Route 595 get closed down for the duration of the event: this is your opportunity to ride the highways, REGARDLESS of your top speed; it's a parade, after all. Imagine seeing nothing but 2-wheelers in front and back of you, as far as the eye can see! It's an amazing sight. People line the highways and overpasses at various points, waving and cheering the bikes on. Go to www.toysinthesunrun.com/index.htmThis is talking place at Pompano Harness Track on Sunday, December 9, 2007, gates open at 7:00 AM. Parade pulls out at 9:45. Event cost is $10 and one unwrapped toy per person or $20 without a toy. Also, the Markham Park will be charging an additional $1.50 per person park entry fee at the main gate. All Proceeds Benefit Joe DiMaggio Childrens Hospital Foundation. ============================================ OK folks ... this looks like a good event for scoot dawgs to support, so if you are not doing anything else that Sunday come join in. ;D ;D ;D

Lewtwo, What a great event, I love it! Are you going for sure? I can't make it on such short notice, but I want to support the event by buying VIP rider privileges, so if you're going for sure, call me and I'll buy the VIP ticket in your name. You can reach me at 504-452-4209, or PM me. I too support Children's Hospital here in New Orleans, and Lee has just agreed to advertise it for me here in the Pound. See link: powerscooters.org/childrenshospital.htmlI might also be able to send you a Children's Hospital Scoot for Kids Golf shirt with our logos on it if they arrive in time (we just ordered them). -Rich

Sorry ... it has been one of those murphy weeks. You know the one I mean ... when one has the "counter-midas" touch and everything turns to $^!# (not-gold). At this point I do not know if I will make it or not.

Well maybe next time...
I know what you mean, I had a similar week with my scoot... gremlins you know...
Anyway, I hope I chased them all away this morning, because I have a club ride tomorrow I really don't want to miss it.
