Austin Scooter Club

For the second year in a row,  Austin Scooter Club  will be serving as scooter ambassadors for the Statesman Capitol 10K on Sunday, March 27, 2011.

As scooter ambassadors, we will be leading the race in front of the runners to pass out t-shirts to bystanders watching the race.  A scooter volunteer team will be on site to assist the race organizers with anything they need on the course. As an event volunteer, you will receive a free t-shirt + free food and beer from the volunteer’s tent after the race ends.

The Capitol 10K benefits the Meals on Wheels charity and is a great way to show Austin residents just how cool scooters are.

Agenda

7:00 AM: Meet at the IHOP at IH-35 and Cesar Chavez to receive your volunteer t-shirt from Michael or Mary.
7:30 AM: Head to the S Congress Bridge where the race starts.
11:00 AM: Go to the volunteer area after the race to enjoy food, brew, and live music.

If you are interested, please respond to the thread titled Official Participation List for Capitol 10K Ride in the Meetups section of our Forum. You can also reply on Facebook to the event Ride the Statesman Capitol 10K Ride or send me your t-shirt size using the Contact form.  Hope to see you there!

Time
Saturday, December 11 · 5:00pm – 10:30pm

Location
Southside Flying Pizza

Austin Scooter Club will be hosting our first ever Holiday Scoot ‘n Skate. We’ll grab some pizza at Southside Flying Pizza and take a nice city cruise up to Chaparral Ice Northcross for ice skating. It costs $10 to rent skates. I highly suggest bringing some gloves and thick socks for skating. Feel free to invite your loved ones to skate time. I hope to see you there.

We will leave from Southside at 6 pm sharp.

The ride will be 50cc friendly.

If anyone is interested, we can meander on down to the Pour House after skating.

October 1st is already here! For A Few Scooters More, the 2nd Annual Riff Raff Austin Scooter Rally starts at 4PM today. Show up to check-in, register, and surround yourself in friendly company while enjoying BBQ before the city ride starts at 7:30.
