This Weekend's Scooter Events 31st May+1st June

This weekend there is an event on each day Saturday and Sunday.

Saturday 31st May - Scooter Racing at Oulton Park. The race meeting is one of the rounds of the BSSO (British Scooter Sport Organisiation), which are held around the country at different race tracks and are part of a motorcycle racing day as there are not enough scooters racing to hold a dedicated meeting just for them. There will be around 30 different scooter racers on the day in different classes, some Lammies, some Vespas and some auto's. The racing agenda for the scooters consists of 2 practices and 2 full races, with the first practice starting at 11am. Iknow that John (Darren's mate from Supertune) is going and I think Peter from the shop and various other local scooterists have also shown interest and a loose arrangement has been made to meet at the Supertune shop for 10am, to get up to Oulton in time for the first practice session, it's £12.00 pay on the gate. I intend to go to this one so if anyone wants to contact me to meet up on Saturday, feel free.

Sunday 1st June - Wrexham S.C. Annual Ride-Out. This is the annual ride-out to the Ponderosa Cafe at the top of the Horshoe Pass, down into Llangollen and back to Wrexham for a pint at Walnut Tree pub. They usually have a custom show and trade stands and it's very well organised and attended with over 300 scooters last year. The ride-out leaves Asda carpark opposite the pub at 1-30pm, so I suggest meeting at Clubbies at 12noon and leaving by 12-15 to get down to Wrexham in time to have a quick look around at the scoots before the off.
