On Saturday May 29th 2010, scooterists conquered the Alps in the second Tranz Alpine Scooter Safari.



The Scooter Safari is a motorised scooter endurance ride, coast to coast, Christchurch to Hokitika to raise funds for the New Zealand Cancer Society.

Here are some snaps taken at the departure point - Air NZ's Christchurch Engineering base

A Vespa Art Exhibition was held @ COCA Gallery in Christchurch

Earl Tutty's exhibition of work celebrating the iconic and much loved Vespa.

In Scoot, painter and graphic designer Earl Tutty reveals his long-standing passion and commitment to superb industrial design, in a new series of works that extol the virtues, culture and life-style of the Vespa scooter. Tutty's interest in the vehicle began in 1972, purchasing a Vespa because he recognised that it was a 'fast, two-stroke' bike.  He has since toured the country on his Vespa's, traveling as far as the Haast, to the surprise and disbelieve of local residences.  Scoot celebrates the culture of this remarkable bike in paintings that evoke and allude to the unique nature of an object that is far more than the sum total of its engineered and aesthetic components.  Using familiar pop culture images, such as the Phantom & Mr Four Square, Tutty brings the bike from an iconic machine into a symbol of what is familiar and desirable.

 

Thanks to all who made it to our Greymouth ride on 7th March.

It wasn't totally incident free, going off the road at Otira Gorge is going to hurt but to be honest, not as much as it would have done in a car. Fortunately Dave was able to walk up the cliff and was heard to say "I think that cracking noise I heard was my shoulder breaking". Anyway, here's a snap taken at Jacksons on the way over:

 

And from the North Canterbury ride on 8th November 2009.

     


Bruce Telford at "Sound of Thunder" practice

He raced it for the first time on Saturday 28th Feb and won!

Bruce is an experienced motorcycle racer with over 15 years racing under his belt. Bruce's aggressive riding style sees him strive for that win, usually on an a Triumph or Aprilia! Overseas experience at the Northwest 200 in Ireland and the Isle of Man where he was one of the fastest newcomers, shows he is serious about this sport.

He has had many wins over the years, these have included the John Britten Memorial Formula 1 title, numerous BEARS "Sound of Thunder" championships as well as Wanganui, Nelson and Greymouth Street races. He holds track records at Taupo, Mansfield and Paeroa.

We are privileged to be able to offer him our support and expect to see him throughout the country this year. As well as our support, Bruce has sponsorship from Forbes and Davies. More sponsors will be welcomed by Bruce with open arms!

Take it to the MAX!!!!
