It's RALLY TIME AGAIN! All Scooters Welcome!
The South Bay Scooter Club presents the 25th Annual Swerve 'n' Curve, SILVER ANNIVERSARY, of the biggest and longest-running rally in SoCal. It's also usually the largest ride we participate in every year.
For many LASG members, this is/was their first big rally, and it's always memorable. This is a great chance to meet riders from all over the region, see an amazing array of scooters, and take a ride around the beautiful Palos Verdes Peninsula area.
Important info:
This meetup is for the LASG group ride to the Swerve 'n' Curve rally on Saturday, September 6th. If you're meeting us in Torrance, no need to RSVP for this ride.
There is an optional pre-registration for the rally so folks can secure a pre-order t-shirt, which must be purchased in advance this year -- please see the SBSC Facebook page for details. (*Link Below*)
The Swerve 'n' Curve Annual Rally is organized and run by the South Bay Scooter Club (http://www.southbayscooterclub.com),
The MAIN Event is NOT run/organized by LA Scooter Group!
Large rallies such as this — with hundreds of scooters on the ride — aren't as structured as our smaller group rides.
LASG Itinerary:
Meet at Ralph's on Admiralty Way at ~9:30 am.
Please park on the north end of the lot, along Mindanao Way.
The LA Scooter Group ride will depart at 10:00 am. Please come early if you want to make sure to get fully caffeinated before we depart. Don't show up at 9:55 am expecting to have time for a leisurely coffee or breakfast.
The closest gas stations are on Lincoln Blvd., east of Ralph's. There is also a gas station near the rally meetup in Torrance, ~17 miles from our meetup.
Our route to the main Swerve Meetup: https://goo.gl/maps/5KPHVTbe1DZA65to6
There is only one tricky part: At Crenshaw, do NOT turn left -- instead, go through the intersection and immediately turn into the SKETCHERS (Not Sponsored*) parking lot on the right and regroup. Once the whole group is reassembled in the parking lot, we will exit the SKETCHERS parking lot onto Crenshaw and continue to the rally starting point.
The route is simple, but long with many stoplights. Traffic WILL break the group up -- don't worry about catching up, just keep going down PCH. We'll regroup before the big turn at Crenshaw. (And unless you see a Norms Restaurant on your right, you didn't miss the turn.)
The route is friendly for all scooters.
Once at the rally gathering, we'll hang out for about an hour, checking out scooters and socializing as other groups and riders arrive.
