lcn the only 'active' club in Austin?

Ok, thats a bit pushing it, but still -- with the apparent demise of Piston Broke, and nothing quite yet formed from the musings of the so-called "Austin Scooter Alliance" (not a club, but just James' name for the Sunday rides), there isn't much as far as 'scooter' clubs in Austin anymore.

Well, there is the 'Smart Ass Scooter Sisters' aka SASS...

Updatey date date.

OK, here's the latest:

• no scoot-arama rally (nobody wants to plan it)


• those going to SH12 in Chicago: Thursday night party at Liar's Club is THE place to be. LCN pre-parties are really the only reason to go. More info soon.


• looks like there's some life in the austin scene. not bad, keep on ridin'


• cha cha has a new addition to the fleet - 81 suzuki GS 450


• chicks dig silent ron

Ok.. so update soon on the Thursday thing.

RIP: the scooter scene

Vintage scootering is dead. There is no way around it.

May 7 Austin Ride

A small group of scoots took a nice ride on a cool, cloudy Sunday afternoon in Austin, ending up on the tarmac of the old Robert Mueller International Airport. Photos in gallery section.

Chicks on wheels.

Austin lcn one-man chapter cha-cha rode with the "Smart-ass Scooter Sisters" last Sunday in lieu of the usual Jo's meetup (and foregoing the Capitol 10K ride due to extenuating circumstances - a killer hangover) and discovered that this group of ladies are damn hardcore with a 25 mile ride in the 93 degree weather, ending up out at McKinney Falls State Park, where we all cooled our heels in the refreshing waters. Excellent.
