C'mon folks... puhleeze tell me I'm not the only "Scooter" going to the 30,000 attendee bike rally!!!
I've posted a couple of notes, but nobody has "taken the bait".
This is a big (as in 30,000 +) Rally, there are about 115 "vendors", and "I'M THE ONLY "SCOOTER" focused dealer.. After the pleasant experience in Arkansas, I assume at least 200-300 of the attendies will be on Scoots!.
Just to be sure, I'm taking my 1995 Golden Aspen Rally, "Best in Show" plaque. My friends say at least I can show that I "used" to be "one of them". I'm counting on my scoot friends to come by the booth to say "Hi'".
I have a bowl of baked peanuts "for friends".
And, if you're lucky, a beer.

Jac,

I hope you are right that there will be some scooters there. I had never heard of this rally before - but of course I was from New England up until a couple of years ago. If nothing else, you can scout it out for us and give us a trip report on it.

Good Luck! And have a safe trip.

SHOOT!!!! If I'd known earlier I could just have easily made reservations for that week instead.

Okay, Back from Ruidoso

What a bummer! Me and three other scoots, one of which was a Silverwing, two Burg 400's. Complete wasted week.
Wish some of you could have joined.

Well, that answers the scooters question. But what was the rally like otherwise. Was it your basic beer bash, wheelie contest, wet t-shirt kind of crowd - or was it a more touring oriented event?
