The Liverpool Scooter Club

The Liverpool Scooter Club was founded in it's present form approximately 16 years ago, following an advert placed in the Liverpool Echo newspaper by Mike Soffe ( the proprietor of MS Scooters in Bootle, Liverpool ). Amongst the scooterists who replied to that advert was Ernie Lundstrom, who is now our club President. The membership of the club is very fluid, in that the members are free to attend meetings and rideouts as they wish. We can probably count around 100 members (although they don't all turn up at once !), and we also have honorary members from around this country, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, continental Europe and other parts of the world. On an average Thursday evening, we can have anywhere between 6 and 60 members and guests present ( usually depending on the weather ). We don't have a committee, and we don't collect any subscriptions. Part of enjoying our scootering, is that we like to arrange events in order to raise money for various charitable causes. These are organised mainly by our event organiser Dave Simmo (who does an excellent job), and he is assisted by various members of the club who add their own areas of expertise and organisational skills.
