Upcoming Rally:: Scooter Rage 24

Better known as "24 Heures du Rage", this year promises to have one event we haven't seen done here in SF in a very long long; if ever!


TIME TRIALS!!!!
With two classes, one for modern and one for vintage scooters, and teams of 3-6 people the 24-hour endurance trial isn't going to be just a kick-your-ass ride. It's timed too.  Hold your horses though--if you go too fast, you're going to get dinged and cost the team the win.  The trick here is to go "scooter speed".  Won't that be fun to see??
Dancing kicks off the festivities Thursday, June 17th.
Friday will see you off in the evening from First Kick to a nice little dive bar. Scoot to drink!
Saving the best for the weekend, the challenge begins on Saturday:
If you manage to avoid a hangover and get up on time, 10AM @ SF Scooter Center will have a swap meet. BUT WAIT! Show up at 2PM  and watch the Le Mans inspired start for the time trials. After which the main ride leaves for a city-lights tour. 
Sunday you'll get to see the road-weary endurance riders who have survived the foggy chill of the SF night and early morning riding.  The winning team will be figured out somehow. Hang out till the end for the awards, raffle and BBQ. Yum.
I dont know about you guys, but I can hardly stand the wait!!!
