Think that's more for 'trad' scooters than maxi's bud, for those without Farcebook access .....

Yes definitely aimed at "trad" scooters. I have attended a couple of rallies and one ride out with these "trad" scooters and not found them very friendly towards automatic scooters or the rider. 40 + years attending race meetings and rallies in the UK and abroad on different makes of motorbikes and always had a warm welcome from everyone. So ,so glad I found the enlightened attitude of fellow Maxi Muppets.

It's a real shame you have come across unfriendly folks in the scootering community. Unfortunately there are some like that. However, I can only say that I have been on a few ride-outs with some of the guys on the Isle of Man and, apart from 1 maybe 2, I have found them to be decent and welcoming people.

Never been to the Isle of Man though would love to visit - I’ve emailed the steampacket company re availability - trad scooterists don’t really concern me though I do have a parka and open faced helmet - you going yourself ?

Good to hear you are considering coming to the island. I live here these days so will be going yes. Hopefully you will be able to make it over here.

Even if folks don't like the idea it is still a great place to visit, especially during the TT fortnight end of May into early June when there is a huge influx of bikers from all over the World creating an amazing atmosphere.

Yes however it’s more economical to camp at Blackberry Lane campsite - the total payable for two nights including ferry and the scooter is £117.00
