Houston’s first scooter rally kicked off on Friday, April 5th with registration and entertainment at Cottonwood’s in north Houston. This large indoor/outdoor bar was perfect for the 60 scooterists who showed up to pick up their rally bags and shirts and enjoy live music by San Antonio band All Sides Equal.

The 7 Hills Scooter Club in Richmond, VA hosted the Indian Summer 7 rally. Well over 100 scooterists came to participate in the “Last Call”. The rally’s slogan was a tribute to the Mayan calendar prediction of the end of the world as we know it. Some said Hurricane Sandy was a sign of the end, so we were grateful to see so many people at the rally after her destructive pass through this region.

Hell was full, so the dead arose and took to the streets, on scooters. The 4th annual Resurgence Scooter Rally was our most successful to date. More than 165 zombie scooterists arrived to usher in the apocalypse. Vintage Vespas and Lambrettas were brought back from the dead. Even a Fuji Rabbit roared back to life. Modern scoots of every stripe and flavor zipped along Atlanta’s streets.

A jacket straight out of the high-fashion world has never been so practical, and now Corazzo will tempt you even further. The Tempeste is already known for its all-season sensibilities, including the completely waterproof shell for wet days, the zipper vents for hot days, and the removable fleecy vest for the days you can’t predict. As always, the Tempeste comes equipped with shoulder, elbow, and back armor. The outer shell, although soft to the touch, is abrasion-resistant to protect your skin. The Tempeste’s deep pockets, stylish collar would even tempt a 007 agent. Doesn’t it tempt you?

As winter moves in, so does the need for some extra layers while riding. Riding whilst cold can become dangerous as arms cramp and your concentration levels fall below zero. Time for some extra layers. Time for a Corazzo Underhoody.

Many Maxi Scoot riders met for the first time at the Maxi Scoot Meet Up in Lewisburg, PA the first weekend in September. While they ride all kinds of bikes one thing is true, they really ride ‘em. One rider came all the way from California!

Nearly 40 scooter riders showed up for the first annual Buzz in the Valley Rally at Lorain Borough Park in Johnstown, Pennsylvania this September. The rally’s proceeds were to be given to a local horse rescue non-profit known as Brightstar Horse Haven and Rescue.

On Friday afternoon a good-sized group rolled into town representing the Three Mile Island Scooter Club from Harrisburg. Scooter enthusiasts traveled from areas all over Pennsylvania, Washington DC, Baltimore, but the farthest traveled came from Ithaca, New York, a 275 mile trek.

Like a rodeo cowboy getting ready for his eight seconds, you’ll slip the Cordero gloves on easily and with one quick pull of the wrist-cinch, you’re ready to ride.
