Lancaster, Scooters on FOX News

Check it out! Steve Horst made the big time. Click here for video.
This is what this blog is about: promoting scooters and Lancaster. Can it get any more perfect? How about they use the very same model and color scooter that I have? Yes.

girlbike Passing Through Lancaster

Last Monday Crystal Waters (pictured, center) of girlbike.com passed through Lancaster with her friends Susan and Pascal. They were passing through on their way from Maryland to Vermont. I met them at the old Rebman's store parking lot. The weather was miserable and I was leaving on a vacation of my own, so I didn't spend much time riding along with them. But I was able to lead them from the south side of the City, to a gas station, and then on to Rt. 501.

Such an ambitious ride for 150cc scooters!

Rent a Scooter, Tour Lancaster

There is a company I found on the internet that will rent scooters for touring Lancaster and Hershey. They are Jaboba. They will bring the scooters to you, in a trailer, complete with helmets. They rent 50cc Honda Metropolitans, like the one pictured here. Sounds like fun! Or a fun way to try out a scooter if you are considering one as commuter transport.

Welcome

The purpose of this site is to promote commuter and tourism use of motorized scooters in Lancaster, PA. No brand snobbery here: everything from vintage Vespas to modern Asian designs are cool here. The point is to inform people about the fun of scooter travel, spread news of scooter-friendly places and events, and give people more reasons to use scooters as a mode of transport in Lancaster. I intend to post plotted scooter-friendly (under 45mph) ride routes and bring you news of new dedicated parking in the City of Lancaster. If you hear about any of these things before you see it here, help me out by letting me know.
