The Scooter Cannonball Run is a coast to coast endurance event for scooters. It is a time/distance/regularity rally where points are awarded based on miles completed and the ability to maintain the standard pace. This year it will begin in Savannah, GA and end eight days later in San Diego, CA covering 2633 miles. There are over 50 entrants riding all types of scooters. From a 1946 Salibury to a modern 3 wheel Piaggo MP3. I have decided join the fun this year. We will leave Savannah on April 22 and head west. I will be riding to raise money for KIDS and LEMUR'S charities. Please help us by purchasing some miles for one of these charities. Don't worry, I will be covering close to 6,000 miles out to California and back to Florida, so there are plenty of miles to go around. ALL monies go directly to the charity.

NEWS ALERT: Big Red and I are no longer in 2nd place (with 30 other people).  They have changed the rules and now we are way down the list.  I understand why they changed the rules but it was nice be 2nd for a while.


Today was 7:01hours of beautiful, chilly riding.  We crossed several 7,500 elevations and the continental divide at over 8,000.

 This is the first day that I have seen more than one or two riders at the checkpoint.
