Club Rideout To Bath, Sunday 12th October- In Sunshine!!

Postby Jim » Sun Oct 12, 2008 11:01 pm

An impressive amount of scoots turned up at the Arnolfini this morning for a rideout to Bath. Hardly surprising really, 'cuz the weather was fantastic for October, Hotter Than July, as Stevie Wonder might say!

Those participating were- Nita and Steve, Bernie and Jenny, Colin, Graham, Kevin, Mike, Nick, Ray, Rich T, Russ and myself- a total of 12 scoots!

The ride was going well until we rode through Victoria Park in Bath, when Nita's scoot conked out. It was a 'sidepanels off' moment, but Steve managed to massage it back to life (top man!),but poor old 'Tutti Fruitti' was spluttering like a good'un, so Nita decided to ride it back to hers while it was still going. Shame, 'cuz Nita had Tutti's sound system working on top form, and we were looking forward to having some fun with it! Oh well, I guess it wouldn't be a proper rideout if somebodies scoot didn't break down- "It's a Lambretta, thats what they do!" to quote Bernie from his DVD's!

Anyway, we stopped off for a pose in Milsom Street, and then the obligatory visit to Lambrettas Bar- we were riding around in T-shirts, in October! How crazy is that! We also called into Bitton railway station for a cuppa on the way back, but bit of a tragedy- no cake left! Doh! Here's a few pics-
