A few years ago I joined the MaxiScoots forum. As the name implies, it was mainly about Maxi Scooters. It wasn't a really big or active forum but it did have regular activity. What made this forum different was that many of the members knew each other and some were good friends. This happened because there was a big get together every year where many of the members got together in various places that had good riding and spent a few day riding and spending time together. I think the last big get together was a few years ago in Alabama and I managed to attend some of that.
Several months ago my computer crashed and I lost my password and the password reset didn't work so i stopped posting but occasionally looked in as a guest. A few days ago it was announced that the forum would shut down unless someone wanted to take it over. One of the members decided to try to keep the gang together by starting a FaceBook group. I think that was a great idea but as we all know, FB sucks compared to a forum. But, better that than nothing.
I was out mowing my lawn in the 100 degree heat when an idea (or maybe a delusion
) hit me. There is a better way. Why not just get everyone to move over here? The software on this forum is actually much better than the old forum. If you have things you really want to save like pics or the stories and ride reports from the old rallies, they could be moved over here. On top of that you instantly get more riders to interact with as there are a number of scooter riders over here. Since many of the Maxi Scoots members ride motorcycles they might be interested in the other parts of this forum.
I am aiming this post at the Maxi Scoots members and will post a link there. For you MaxiScoots members, take a look around and see if you like what you see. Keep in mind that this is a pretty new forum and growing.

Ok, I'm here, but why don't the drinks have the tiny umbrellas like the other site?
