[replyingto=domindart]domindart[/replyingto]June, 1964, in England for the summer. My Uncle let me ride his Puch Moped. I had to pedal up Shooter's Hill. A moped is not a scooter. A scooter needs to have floorboards.
November 1964, my 18th birthday, got a new Honda CA110 Sport 50, a motorcycle. A motorcycle is not a scooter. A scooter needs to have floorboards.
October 11, 2012, I get my first scooter, a Vespa LX150. Legally and actually it is a motorcycle. But it is also a "scooter" since it does have a floorboard.

New parking -- motorcycle only parking.  More and more cities and shopping mauls are putting in motorcycle only parking. For those who don't live in cities, you can try catching a *Classic* car in your mirrors:  Option: catch the driver *texting* while driving. |

... Your scooter at a Water park / Water slide / Beach volleyball court or any of the above 3 will be fine is just 21 miles East. I could have cruised the neighborhood to find kids with a water slide on their lawn. But Since I have the option, I went 6 miles west to the Beach:   |

In some countries it is considered a capital crime which carries a death penalty to fail to render aid.... I would be surprised that any country has such a law. If you know of one, I would like to see the actual law. So I would know what countries to avoid. |

[replyingto=scootdoggydog]scootdoggydog[/replyingto]  They're lucky, I have the purple trees ready for them. What is the next tag for me to be too slow? |

If a golf course is too fast they are going to hate it if I get to there first -- I have purple trees to tag.

[replyingto=joel]joel[/replyingto]Very First thing: team-oregon.org/ Find what sites have a scooter available and reserve it for your class. You can use your scooter, but how do you plan the bike to take to the class? Trailer? Take the class, pass, get the certificate, go to the DMV, pay, pass written test, walk out with your motorcycle license. -- www.oregon.gov/ODOT/DMV/pages/driverid/motorcycle_endorse.aspxYou don't need to get a learning permit first, and is actually useless since you cannot ride unless an 21-y-o+ motorcyclist is riding their scoot watching you. |

[replyingto=sylvrekat]SylvreKat[/replyingto] Courage DirectorsHistory: I ran the S.W.A.M.P.S. BBS in Los Angeles, back in the early '80's. Wide open, people could claim anywhere they were calling from. One morning someone claimed from London, England. "Oh yeah, sure you are!" Break into Chat type "What is Courage Directors." He replies, "I don't know what you are talking about unless you mean the beer." OK. Chat a while, I mail he a disk with BBS software, he sends me a 4-pack of real English beer. I could brag I had the longest further call, verified. But that is why, for me, "Courage" connects with "Directors" -- an excellent ESB. |

[replyingto=domindart]domindart[/replyingto]Notes on first girl:
Where in the world that has a private motorcycle lanes?
She was not watching her mirrors, sat in the center of the lane trying to block others.
As the guy passed her she bumped and wiped out.
Her helmet was not fastened and went flying.
The rider she hit stopped.
The rider behind avoided the collision and went past and continued their way.
The other rider, with the camera, avoided the collision and went past and continued their way.
Hey!! She was blocking the road. Her fault.
