See you there, and let's hope for good weather!

Amerivespa 2009!

Hello to all my Scooter Battalion friends, Happy New Year!

Wanted to get in touch and let ya'll know Amerivespa '09 will be in San Jose, CA this summer over the July 4th weekend. San Antonio Ne'er Do Wells (about 10), will be hauling scoots from San Antonio, and if anyone in Houston would like to send their scoot, we would be happy to haul it round trip. We are probably gonna ask $400 round trip and we have at least one trailer and truck that can handle 12 or so with 4 spaces already taken and if needed we have another rig.... We could be in touch with anyone interested and maybe ya'll could get your scoot to San Antonio and either fly from San Antonio, or drive a car possibly in a caravan.
Vespa Club of Los Gatos will be celebrating 20 years and there will rides from SJ to San Fran and Santa Cruz Boardwalk. It should be over the top. VCOA is pulling out all the stops anticipating 1200 scoots. Also, we are still planning, and 99.9% sure that Amerivespa 2010 will be in San Antonio, so, of course, I would love the majority of ya'll to go to one before coming over and participating, and even helping produce 2010. My email is sascootergirl@yahoo.com and I would love to hear from anybody interested. I am back on La Sirena and the Allywn will be ready early March cause that scoot was really damaged and we are getting that baby ready for Callie.......Ride like you mean it my scooter buddies....Until we ride again....
Miss Dawn.
VCOA Secretary

P.S. I'll let ya'll know when the web site is up.

January Ride!

We are going to have our first ride of the year and its gonna be good one! We are gonna have our POKER RUN. We are tentatively set to visit THE FLYING SAUCER, THE DRY CREEK, JR'S, RUDYARDS and ending back BEER ISLAND. This is how the POKER RUN works- you will pay $5 to participate and receive a wristband then we take off from the BEER ISLAND and head off to any off the above mentioned establishments. At each place, you will show your wrist band to the bartender at each bar . The bartender will hand you one card, after collecting a total of 4 cards from the 4 different places you will return to BEER ISLAND to get your last card. Who ever has the top hand will be the winner with prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. We did this years ago and it was a blast. As always we will meet @ BEER ISLAND @ 2 TO ROLL @ 3 this Sunday Jan 4Th. See ya there.
