What would it be like to look out on a different part of America every morning for a week?
On Sunday morning scooter riders from across the country will be in Savannah, Georgia to embark on the 2012 Cannonball Run — an eight day, 2500 mile race to Motorsport Scooters in San Diego, California. It’s a big ride for a scooter.
I would have forgotten had it not been for the timely email notification from Scootin’ Old Skool — thanks Orin!
The biannual race is fun to follow as the riders make their way across America. There are a variety of places to keep up with the action and informative for anyone considering a scooter but have doubts about their capabilities. Vespa, Piaggio, Yamaha, Kymco, Stella, SYM, Honda and Suzuki are all represented. There’s even a 1961 Sears scooter in the race.

As a former owner, I’m rooting for the Honda Passport!
Steve:
are you hinting about pointing your GTS towards Vancouver and arrive here in a few days ? Our snow has been replaced with rain

Charlie6: Not sure if the Canonball is on my bucket list. There are times it sounds cool but then on other days I ask “what’s the rush?”.
The only thing I’m sure of is that the bucket is getting closer…
Barron: Those Honda Passport bikes are great!
