The New York Scooter Club’s mission is to help New York-area scooter owners and enthusiasts share information, socialize, and plan group scooter rides and other events.

First step in that process is getting to know each other!

Tell us a little about yourself! Examples

Jonathan aka Brouhaha
Ride: 2005 Imperial Blue ET4
Live: Boerum Hill, Brooklyn
Work: Downtown

Allison Watters
Ride: Stella
Work: Union Square
Live: Gramercy Park area
(how lame is that commute on a scooter?)
Riding experience: less than a year

P.S. I've consolidated the two prior threads on this topic to help prevent "Sticky" creep... You can read the old "Identify yourself! [Tell us who you are]" thread here:

Jonathan: Not two threads. Three. There's this, as well, from December 2005:

What do you ride?
http://www.nyscooterclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=109

Wait a sec... How does locking (and thereby consigning to the dustbin) the already amassed self-introductory material help things? Isn't this just chopping the information into pieces? Now I have to look in TWO places if I want to know who the hell Alan Gotlieb is. If I want to find some rider who signs on this weekend, I have to search TWO threads of introductions -- THREE if I'm trying to put a name with a bike.

That's exactly what "post creep" is: MULTIPLE threads on the same topic that prevent users from knowing which thread to look in. When you want something, you have to be able to know where to go for it.
