Ok guys, we have a few of us around Kansas City. I see the KC Chapter being a loosely organized group.....no dues, no rules, no crap.....just ocasional rides. There is a larger club in KC called Mad Toto which is very organized and I'm sure they would welcome us riding with them once and a while and participating in some of their events. Their regular rides are too long with not enough breaks or interesting destinations for my taste.

OK guys in the KC area, I'm going to short ride this Sun. in the first official KCSDSC (Kansas City ScootDawg Scooter Club) event, even if I have to go alone. I'll bet airnerd is in. ;D Update Airnerd is in for the ride. He already wrecked his scooter by driving it through his landlord's door. If anyone else is interested, we plan to meet up somewhere around 2:00 and ride for about an hour....two at the most, hit some spot for pizza or beer along the way. I'll update this post with meeting location. If you want to ride, let me know and it may influence meeting place.

Dear Airnerd; I'm closest to olathe 44MI south by south west. I'd have to ride for just over an hour to get too olathe coming up 169Hy-way. Then get off 119th go to renner rd. come up to 95th then go up too quivera to what the 75th st area. Where would you want to meet? Lord theres got to be a better way of doing this. But what I don't know at the moment....slowfire

Slowfire, I don't have time for a ride that long today but we'll plan one where we can meet in Olathe, hopefully while the weather is still cooperating. There are some good back roads around there.
The plan for today is let's meet at Sutera's (50th & Rainbow) today 2:00. There is a great ride out Lee Blvd. and Mission Road south to 215th St. This plan is subject to change so check the board here. Also, I've pm'd slowfire with my cell # so call me if you are going to do this so we don't leave without you.

Mr. Lee ; I'm sorry I'm not going to be able to make it. It would be about what 60-65 mile for me too the meeting point I'd be too pooped for the rest of the ride let alone the ride home. you guy's go ahead have a great time ...slowfire

Well, the KCSDSC had it's first ride today. All three of us. Hey, you gotta start somewhere. I thought it would just be two but my girlfriend went too on her big bad Vespa. Airnerd's scoot looks pretty cool and seemed to perform flawlessly.
slowfire, I know what you mean about the ride to KC pooping you out. That's why we need to plan a ride around Olathe once & a while. The 150's most of us ride simply are not really highway machines. It's very seldom I will get on a road with a higher posted speed than 45.

Yea yea yea! KCSDSC was a succes!
I did end up cutting my ride with the pack a little short but man it was a BLAST!
I just got back home (only for sustanance) after visiting with my Bro in Olathe.
The next ride should be in Olathe if posible, I grew up there and know ALL the back roads, so I will bust out a Map and plot a course if thats cool with yall?
Thanks Dawg for letting me be a part of this FIRST Scoot Dawg Ride!
Well gotta go Scoot some more...this is TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUN!!!!!!!!!

Come one and come all. It's fun to ride to work and all, but every once in a while it's fun to ride in a pack.....even if it's a small one. I've ridden a few times with 25-30 scooters. The bad boys of the pack on fast scooters ride patrol and scoot fast to the next light and play traffic cop blocking the crossing until all scoots are through. The real cops don't seem to have a problem with that. Anyway, I predict the next KCSD ride will be up to 4 or 5 riders. ;D

Hey Airnerd,

You've gotta tell this story.

Sorry I missed the ride, Dawg. I was in DC last week, got back late Sunday. There might be another chance or two with decent weather in October, though...

I'm hoping so. This weekend is a long planned canoe trip for me. Nothing to stop the rest of you though. I'm hoping the weather might cooperate the next weekend. This time of year you have to play it by ear.
