Whatever they paid these women, it wasn't enough. Especially the poor gal clinging bravely to the nimrod in the pink shirt.

Good Lord! That video kind of reminds me of the chariot race in Ben Hur. And...where are their helmuts?

Why the heck was that one girl riding side saddle. I can't watch. These people give scootering a whole new meaning.....  _________________ Dar ~ I was born to ride!  my blog: Princess Scooterpie http://scootermayhem.blogspot.com/

What a waste of boobs and estrogen, they give us gal riders a bad name. For that matter, what a waste of testosterone.  I did like the scooters though......  Where do you find this stuff, HC? Girl, you need a hobby

Island Diva, riding side saddle was bad enough but did you check out the high heels?

i think that if i was the girl riding the pink shirt one i am afraid that i would have to ask to be let off of the scoot! bad enough that she does not have the proper clothing on to ride one but the guy is practically letting the scooter drive itself! and riding side saddle is extreamely dangerous,. I was thinking what if the scooter fell over, there would be alot of skin left on the highway. not to mention a few broke ankles and bones.

When I was at a rally down in Cape Canaveral this past summer, there were a lot of Brits that came over on vacation to hang out at the rally...and a bunch of scoots. I was staying next door to the rally hotel, and as it happened another British lady was there with her American husband, for their own travel. She saw my Vespa, and started asking me about it. Turns out she was a Mod back in the day, in the UK. She said she remembered the scoots had big, tall backrests (ironing board style), and they hung fox tails off them. She said they used to tilt back, and how far you (as pillion) dared to lean back determined how cool you were. She said she also rode side saddle. Although scooters were made so women in skirts could drive, they often went side saddle when the boys took over.

I would hate to be going around a corner with too much lean and my heel getting stuck in soft asphalt.
