Therustyaxe and I were talking on the phone last night. We would like to get a California event set up, perhaps a fund raiser for some kind of cancer benefit.
Anybody interested? And if you are, what road/highway would you like to ride on. Remember that a 50cc or even a 150cc would not handle any freeway.

To be decided, it will depend on who is willing and how many people can show. I guessing that somebody might need to trailer in their scooter no matter where it is. therustyaxe is between San Diego and Los Angeles, I'm North of Bakersfield, so one of use will most likely need to haul a scooter if it is at the others area.
Personally, I like the idea of riding up Hwy 1 from about Cambria to Big Sur. The Highway is a slow speed highway and I think the smaller scooters could keep up with traffic. It has been years since I have driven it but when I did most of the time traffic was well under 50 mph. Where ever we do it, we should have nice scenery to look at.
There might be a need to do more than one ride, if people like it, they could be held on a regular basis, in different parts of the State.

I was just hoping to find some riders within the Sacramento, Bay area or Napa. I have not ridden enough to know where I want to ride. I'm not real comfortable with high speeds or traffic.

There are a couple others here from the Sacramento/Bay area, they have just not chimed in. One from Vacaville, then one or two from the Bay area.

YOU guys are so lucky to have such beautiful travel road's to go down.
I have not been to Californian in years, when i was there i loved the mainstream educated coolness most folks possessed.
How do folks perceive scoots out there now? I mean is it scooter friendly.

Well, I see more scoters now than I did a few years ago, but I am in a rural argricultural area. I'm sure that in places like San Francisco they are much more popular.
As far as "The Ride" is going. Looks like therustyaxe is going to haul his scooters and Sunshine up here and we may be riding in the Sequoia National Forest. Plans are not yet firm.
