Help Out A Fellow Scooterist

Our friend Casey from the Austin Hooligans SC was in a bad wreck last week. You might remember him as wining Best Custom Scooter at SandBlast Rally the past two years. The Hooligans and The Scooter Scoop wrote detailed description of the accident and his condition. There is a Get Casey Back Riding Fund set up to help him out. The Scooter Scoop is graciously sending gifts for your donations. For $5 you will receive a patch and for each increment of $20 you get a raffle drawing to win an awesome scooter gift basket. Thanks Guz! So please help out with anything you can.

Update: And the raffle WINNER is...

I was almost hit by my own scooter here.

The River Rally Returns

After a 3 year hiatus the River Rally is finally back! Scheduled for May 16-18th in New Braunfels, TX (located between Austin and San Antonio) you will be camping along the Guadalupe River. This year Austin's clubs (Piston Broke SC and Austin Hooligans SC) are taking the lead in organizing the rally. The pre-registration cost is $40, and Erika assures me that price is well worth it. Registration includes, camping for 2 nights, 3 meals, a rally bad (with T shirt and patch) and much more. For details please visit the Piston Broke SC homepage. Please be patient with their slow website.

This is one of my all time favorite rallies. The scenery is spectacular, and the rides are too. You are camping a feet away from the river, so you can always take a quick dip to cool off. This is also the one rally where Texas scooterists really become United!

Disclaimer: If you are accustomed to fine dining, soft music, 250cc touring, this rally may not be for you.

SandBlast II = SUCCESS!

We had 4 amazing days at the beach with beautiful riding and camping weather. Over 200 scooterists attended the weekend's festivities. Many told me it was the best rally that they had ever attended! Even though we didn't have Abby the monkey, Ben's comedy act entertained us to pieces. The gymkhana was simply insane and is currently toping the YouTube charts (see videos below). Please share your rally photos by uploading them to scoot.net.

Thanks to all the scooterists that came out from all over the country. We also couldn't have done it without our generous sponsors. I want to thank my fellow organizers and other volunteers who worked so hard to make this the best SandBlast yet!

This one will go down in history!
