AGD Car sighted near Glen Ellyn

Same digit for the cell

Actualy... they USED to use Vespa's and Lambretta's for their motor brigades. In fact, occasionaly one still painted in the theme comes up for sale. One just recently on the East Coast as a matter of fact. But if you go back a few years you will find pictures of Shriners using Vespa's almost exclusively... then some groups had Cushmans and a few had Lambretta's. They were all member owned so they went with thier owners and some come out of the barn as they die and get sold. Some pretty cool ones.

here is one of them... original decoration

That is pretty cool. The ones used here are actually Harley's. I don't know of any scooters being used. But if one does pop up, please let me know. I may be heavily interested :-)

Follow closely... THEY USED TO BE used. Years back they were all Vespa's or Lambretta's and such. This was in the 50's and 60's... even into the 70's.

that one in the picture was from long ago. Someone got ahold of it and kept it painted the old theme. There are a few being found in barns and garages from time to time. But no drill team as a group using them. However there are some scootering books that document the old days and such.

Now, yes, they are not being used by any group that I know of. The use of scooters by Shriner drill teams is old school and no longer the case. Mainly because the old guys are no longer alive or riding or even have their scooters anymore. And old scooters are harder to find.

So the younger guys are using Sportsters and such.

Nevermind.

I still have my 99' Cougar as well. I'm going to dump it soon (only 90k miles) to my brother in law for a lil bit and get an SUV cause the baby. Lugging around the baby + the upcoming baby stuff (she's only 2 months but you damn well know she'll have SO much stuff once she's a few more months and going to relatives all the time).

Mozaic man, I agree. The small one we had near Detroit rocked. Let me know. My only issue right now is funding and time. School starts this monday (ugh) Otherwise, how have you been doing?

Digitard, long time no talk bro. How is everything? So you have a little one on the way ehhh? Dude that rocks. And yep, I still have my cougar :-)

ender, I am almost back in school. Intending to graduate with a M.A. in Industrial/Organizational Psychology

I agree, I think the last time was at least 1+ years ago when I was still with AGD (I still love AGD)
