Aberdovey Rideout Pics

Long hard day in the saddle which started off pretty wet and miserable and reached a 50/50 turn-back decision point at Bala where the weather had turned for the worse and it had got considerably colder. However not to be beaten the intrepid riders of CSC carried on to the petrol stop at Dolgellau where the weather started to brighten up and the decision was made to carry on all the way to Dovey, which was bathed in sun when we arrived, it turned out a really good ride on fantastic twisties with splendid Welsh scenic views. Riders present were Dave, Bernie + Tracy, Steve, Graham, Brian, Brian Gosling, Peter + Alison.

Shrewsbury Severnside Fun Day 2011

A lovely day out as always at this very well run event, full house turn out as always, great pub, great catering, great raffle and Severnside Scooter Club really know how to organise an event. The only thing that let us down this year was getting lost around the town centre on the way and the occassional rain shower, but a lovely ride back to Ellesmere with a coffee by the lake topped off a smashing day out.

Anglesey Scooter Rally

Great weekend was had by all, only marred by the accident that Nigel and Steph had when a van reversed into them at speed in Beamauris throwing them both off the scoot, that's the kind of accident that non of us are expecting, however luckily they both escaped serious injuries and suffered mainly cuts and bruises, everyone at Chester Scooter Club hopes you both get well soon.
It was nice to have Paul + Chris along for the week-end, as they kept us all entertained with their good banter, they were doing the manly thing by camping while the rest of us wimps were in the very snug Liverpool Arms pub. The star act on the Saturday night was Dean Parrish, famous for his hit 'I'm on my way' and for a guy of 69 years of age he did not disappoint as his voice was still tremendous, all in all a great week end only spoiled by the poor weather and Nige's accident.
Although the weather was poor until Sunday, we made up for it with a very good warm ride home in the sunshine, with a nice rest stop at Conway for an ice cream.

More Easter Egg Run Photo's

Fantastic day out in the sun, thanks to all scooterists who turned out to make it such a success, we stopped counting at 104 scooters riding into Clubbies, so numbers were probably in excess of that. Big thanks to Pat and Andy of The Grosvenor Arms for hosting the event and putting on the food and more thanks to Bernie and Tracey for organising the paperwork and trophy and for George for getting on the microphone to make the announcements. Congratulations to Dabbbers S.C. for winning the Best Turned Out Club hope you liked our unusual trophy.

But let's not forget the sick kids at the Countess which was the real reason why we turned out and this year two or three kids came outside to get their Easter Eggs and to have a look at the scooters, so well done to everyone concerned as this event is definitely growing year after year.
