New - but not really

Hi, Eric Tragedy here.

Some of you may know me already.
I've been involved in scootering in Cincinnati since 1986.
At that time there were very few scooters in town and rides were rare.

I remember first seeing a flier for the Ten Year Lates at U.C. I think it was around the late 90s. I always meant to join but never really did.
I knew Dave (of the Comet) since he used to bartend at The Cove and also rode a vintage bike (a Lammie) so I was pretty much a Comet regular since day 1, and I stumbled across the club there a couple times.

I was able to make a few Wed. night rides, and other events like parades and such, but since I normally work on the weekends and/or spend summers overseas, I never made it to the big WKRP rally (except sometimes for the evening parties).

Like a true-blue Cincinnatian, I finally made my first WKRP rally - 10 years late - at what I believe was the 10th one.

What else can I tell you about me?
I live in Cincy part time and down in rural Kentucky part time. I'm a teacher and a filmmaker.
I'm also a member of the Vulcan Scooter Secte

I own two scooters:
A vintage 1974 Vespa 90
and a modern 2006 Vespa LX-150

This summer I'm in the USA for the first time in years - I hope to get to see and ride with you all a lot!

-Eric Tr@gedy :D :(

(I think) I remember you, were you at the "Scum of the earth" rally?

Well, hello there! We ride a lot on here so it would be nice to get you to come along. Next Saturday we have a huge ride. Did a fun ride last night to Covington.

We do a lot of stuff besides ride (like Fish Fry tonight!).

Come along anytime!

Thanks - I will (if it ever stops pouring!!!). I've ridden with you guys a few times, but I think my scooter is probably more memorable than me, LOL!
