Yesterday was the first official ride of the Scooter Shooters (name may not stick) – six nerds on scooters, with (many) cameras (disclaimer: Shan isn’t that much of a nerd, and Ed didn’t have a camera).

On three rented scooters and three personal scooters, Miranda Reilly Shan Josh Ed and I rode all over the city. We went through Stanley Park a couple times, participated in the Stanley Park Water Fight, ate enormous burgers at Vera’s, through Kitsalano, past Jericho Beach and Spanish Banks, neared Wreck Beach, through the UBC campus, and back again. It was awesome.

I rigged a flexible tripod to Oscar’s handlebars, and was able to take pictures duding the ride as well as some videos. Check out my Flickr page, and go here for the videos. They’re shaky – even Image Stabilization won’t keep a steady picture at 60km/h – but they’re pretty fun.

I’m tired, but satisfied after having such a great Saturday. Today, we clean. Somehow it’s just not as exciting.
