May 2008 Archives

I was not expecting a large group. As far as I knew, it would be Katt, Chewy and Stubbie.

We'll be taking a scenic ride to Perrinville, in Edmonds, on Monday, May 26.

Meet up at Diva Espresso, 80th & Greenwood, at 10:00 am. We'll leave shortly thereafter for Tazza Bella, have coffee and food, and come back a different way.

The ride is open to all. Please read our ride protocols if you'd like to join us.

Hope to see you there!

We had a couple great rides around town this past weekend while some of the kids were in Victoria for the rally. The weather was absolutely delicious. We made some new friends, too.

Here's the deal: Sunday, May 18, 2008, meet up at Krispy Kreme in SoDo (1st & Holgate). Ride leaves at noon (sorry, Westenders don't do "scooter time"). Destination TBD, based on group consensus. All scooterists and scooters are welcome, but please review our Riding Protocols. Our ride, our rules.

The Westenders plan to take advantage of this beautiful weather and we're doing a ride tonight lead by Nero94. We will be departing from Scoot About at 6:00 PM and heading up to Golden Gardens. It will be a nice long ride and we will be stopping at Cafe Verite/Cupcake Royale to fuel up.

The Westenders made a big impression at the Sustainable West Seattle Festival on May 4, many festival-goers stopping by our display to learn about scooters, the OTHER transportation alternative. We even got a mention in the West Seattle Blog!

Scootering is definitely a gas! Hairy and doc are checking out the scooter garage thoughtfully provided by the West Seattle community during the First Annual Sustainable West Seattle Festival. Great place to park, Hairy!
