Austin Scooter Club

Linda  has planned an 80-mile round trip ride out to Elgin on Sunday (October 24th) to enjoy the beautiful weather with area scooterists. The route will include stops in Webberville, Manor, the Lorraine Ghost Town, and Elgin’s historic district. The Lorraine Ghost Town has fantastic photo ops, so bring your camera and your Western attire. Please arrive with a full tank of gas and your helmet. This ride is for scooters that can sustain 55 mph.

Agenda
8:30 AM: Meet at Jamba Juice at 1201 Barbara Jordan Blvd.
9:15 AM: Kickstands up!
11:15 AM: Stop in downtown Elgin for a late breakfast at City Café.
3:30 PM: Arrive back in Austin.

The intense summer heat is starting to ease up, so a group ride is in order. We will  take back roads to The Oasis, enjoy the sunset over Lake Travis, and head back to Austin proper before nightfall.

View a map of the ride here and decide whether or not you feel comfortable enough with your skill level. This is one of the most technically challenging rides that has been offered by ASC and is limited to scooters that can maintain 45-50 mph. The route has a great deal of curvy roads, so please ride with caution.

Mary will be leading the ride on her red Stella. Please wear your helmet.

Since the rainy days have stopped (for now), we’ll be holding a last minute group ride tomorrow morning. So dust off your scoots, dig your helmet out of that closet and prepare yourself for some group riding awesomeness. There will be a free breakfast taco or cup of coffee for everyone that comes to the ride tomorrow.  Ian will be leading the ride on his crimson SYM HD200. This will be a ride for 125 cc  and up scooters.  Please remember to wear your helmet.
