Scooter News

I know most of you know the score, but just in case, please give this a read before you attend any rides.

Try to choose rides that are appropriate for your engine size and skill level. Be familiar with general group riding techniques before you show up (know your hand signals and how to ride in a staggered formation).

Group rides aren't a race. We love going fast as much as you do, but these events are about riding together, not showing everyone how super awesome your new kit is. Be patient, enjoy the scenery, and ride like a jackass on your own time.

If someone is new and you're experienced, help them out! Put them toward the front of the pack and keep an eye out in case they need some extra space. Remember your first group ride?

All rides leave from Vespa Halifax unless otherwise noted. Have to fill up on tasty coffee before we go!
