REMINDER: PLEASE ONLY POST ROUTE MAPS IN THIS THREAD, THANKS

This is a catalog/repository thread to post maps of the rides members of the New York Scooter Club do.

If you have done a ride, post the map here for fellow riders to use again, or for the first time if they missed the original.
(please post the maps after the ride to account for any last minute route changes)

All discussion of the rides will remain in their separate ride threads, this is strictly for posting route maps.

Map it up and ride safe...

If any of ya'll ever wanna ride up this way do not hesitate to drop me a line. This area has allot of "hidden gem" roads. I've also got tools, garage space, apple pie & coffee so you don't have to feel isolated if you find yourself in a bind or need a pit stop during your travels.

In the unlikely event anyone wants to recreate the Lambretta red light ride '09, here's a map:

We actually got to hit some interesting parts of Brooklyn that a lot of us don't go to very often, but whoever set up the red light pattern on Kings Highway was pretty cruel.
