Are we going for a segway section ?

Plenty of places offer segway tours

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I think we need a welcome message
.... and maybe we can introduce the forum Admin team ... they need a bit of fleshing out but I see one as being a "Frank" - a retired teacher who has moved to a rural setting without a bus service. He rode a scooter in the 60s and sees the modern, clean scooters of today to be the ideal means of transport for the kids in his village. He also values his mobility scooter as he finds it hard to get around like he used to.

Anyway .... suggestion for a Welcome Message along with a temporary sub title for the forum ....

Ridersite, "Scooters and Segways"
The home for riders of all forms of scooter
  • Hello and Welcome to our new forum for users of all types of scooter.
    This is the place that brings together all those people that recognise the benefits to society of transport that impacts little on the environment and brings mobility to those for whom public transport is not always a viable solution.
    Here you will find a friendly place to discuss the benefits of your chosen transport away from the users of gas-guzzling cars or noisy, dirty motorbikes.
    We hope to build a strong online community that can offer support to its members and from there go on to coordinate action to promote the interests of those that cherish their freedom of mobility and wish to contribute to a better environment for all members of society.

For existing members, the words "red rag" and "bull" come to mind

Need to keep it bubbling without boiling over ...... also need to make sure that nobody logs in on Aprilia Fools day, takes one look, realises that the warnings of doom have come to fruition and never return again

I think Mango is getting quite irate already

Electric bikes?

To maintain the Aprilia bias, perhaps some features on the Aprilia scooter range?

Not going to be a lot of input from me I'm afraid, but watching with interest. :smt001
