The focus of this website is that scooters are a form of sustainable transportation. I know they are not as sustainable as walking or biking, but they are better than driving a car. I also post about events in Columbus (scooter rides and other), scooter gear I really like, and my pet project, scooter parking.
I ride a silver Kymco People 150. (That’s a Taiwanese scooter.) Top speed is 65-70 mph, and typical mileage is 80-90 mpg. It’s the best looking scooter in the photo above. 
The photo was taken in Central Ohio August 4th, on a group ride. (Hey Modern Vespa!) There are 6 scooters: 1 Honda Helix (the big one), 2 Kymcos, 2 Vespas, and 1 Bajaj.
I’m in Central Ohio, metropolitan Columbus, and no I don’t call it CB**.
Please note I am not affiliated with any particular store, brand, club, or website. I make no money or anything off you visiting or buying from anyone. In other words, I am independent. I don’t even get freebies, as in “try out this seat cushion for free, and write a review of it on your site.”

Nice links and articles, I love hearing a girls viewpoint, so much is written by guys. I like that my scoot is low-emissions/low gas consumption besides being a cool ride(Kymco People 250, gunmetal grey)….

Linda, yes I’m hoping to get more photos loaded. Just got a flickr account, that should help.
Sally, yes I think we need more female scooter writers (bloggers). Can’t beat the gas consumption! Ride safe on your People 250!

I went to the cycle store in Hilliard. They told me “we only sell REAL motorcycles”. Strange that they had a scooter with a “sold” sign in front of the store.
