spring is rally time!

Well, spring is just around the corner and rally season is coming up fast. The scoot.net rally calendar is an excellent resource to find a scooter gathering in your neck of the woods. Personally, I am going to try to attend at least two rallies this summer. I recently upgraded to a Honda Ridgeline as my primary vehicle, so I can haul my scoot around if my travels take me on big highways or thru sketchy parts of town.

Rumor has it that the Charm City Scooter Rally, traditionally the first weekend in May, will be May 7-9 this year. Last year, they had a successful camping rally up in the mountains of Western Maryland. I hear it'll be the same again this year.

Also in May, the Mid-Atlantic Scooter Rally up in New Holland, PA (somewhere between Philadelphia and Lancaster) gets kudos to being far more organized than the average scooter rally. I got an email last week that said they already had over 50 riders registered for their May 21-23 event. Bless them for actually marketing their plans instead of just keeping their fingers crossed that I will stumble across their website.
