There is something to be done in Provo. What you may ask? A Gymkhana. We will turn the parking lot of the Provo Town Square into a Colosseum of Scooters. Legshields will be shattered.

Skills will be pushed to the very edge! And you can be a part of it! Everyone is invited to check out our scoots too! So bring your friends or family to see the fun!

We will be leaving from the Orem City Park at 5:00 PM to the Provo Town Square Parking lot, where we will have it sectioned off for the cool event.

A small course which will have you weaving, speeding, and jumping your way from the start, to the finish line! A cool BBQ and some crazy awesome music will be set up where people can bring their own food in which to cook and eat.

Winner gets a pretty awesome prize!

The 2010 season of the Brigham’s Bees Scooter Club has started! And we started it off just like last year, and kept the tradition alive with a ride to the “Y” in Provo.  Saturday turned out to be a little on the cold side, yet 11 scooterists put on their heavy coats and gloves and made it out to the park to meet. When we all were ready to head out, we scooted down canyon road, and made it to the main campus road. We passed by a ton onlookers and got the good word out for the club!

When we got to the Y, we took some photos, and briefly talked. It was quite cold, so we headed down to the Bombay House to meet up with some other club members and even a couple of the Salt Lake crew to get our grub on. We chatted and laughed, and we were able to get back to the exciting season of scootering. After we ate, some headed over to F-stop to check out Tijuana Bible rock out. Overall, a short and awesome way to start the season right! Check out the photos on the gallery page!

This season, we have a bunch of cool rides. With the month of April, we have two more rides coming up: Gymkhana at Provo (April 17th), and Moab 2010.  (April 30th) So get your scooter skill sharpened and pack some camping gear, because these next two events can’t be missed!

2010 is here and the first ride is just DAYS away! Brigham’s Bees Scooter Club had quite the rockin’ rides last season. But this year, we have some of the most awesome rides planned. With a crazy awesome list of rides such as Moab, Antelope Island, Heber, Tibble Fork Reservoir, and possibly the most intense ride in the history of the club, The Crystal Hot Springs in very northern Utah.

With that said, the first ride for the bees will carry the torch with the same ride that resurrected the club last year. The ride starts in the Orem City Park @ 5:00 PM and leaves at 5:30 PM (Right off of Center street and State Street in Orem) and cruises up to the parking lot at the “Y” where we will take in the view, and get some photos. For those who wish to keep the night going, we will head down to the Bombay House for some awesome food. Afterwards, there will be some music from Tijuana Bible at F-Stop Cafe (250 North University Avenue) The music is described as, “Solid hardcore punk” or “Fast and Loud” so be warned! Nate Perkins, a local scooterist, is in the band, so let’s show our support!

Until then, get your scooters ready for a crazy awesome year!

Scooterists and Mods alike, met for the annual High Rollers Weekend at Las Vegas, NV and the bees put on their best dancin’ shoes to join in on the fun. Some bees rolled in Thursday night to enjoy the “Gong show” Activities and get some rest for the early morning ride  on what they call the “Summerlin Stroll”  which is a leisurely ride through the local roads of Vegas and ending at a bar for people to check out scooters and talk.

Everyone was deeply impressed with Mike Meyers scoot and it got alot of photographers to snap away including “Pistol Pete” of Scoot magazine! After everyone was done socializing, we then headed to get some lunch where John ordered the 6 pound burger. As people pointed and snapped photos, we had a good laugh and chatted with club members and many of the Salt Lake Crew.  That night, everyone met up to check out some awesome music at the Beauty Bar and welcome the rest of the scooter crew that drove all day Friday.

Saturday was pretty awesome starting off with the scooter shine and show. Some interesting scooters showed up from a “Death Proof” scooter based off the movie, to a customized scooter that looked like it came from space.   The crew then went through the Lake Mead scenic route and ended up at MonteLago Village at the Lake Las Vegas Resort. The experience was something not alot of people get to experience, which was to ride down the cobblestone road past shops where people are only allowed to walk on. We got a bite to eat, talked some more, and then parted ways to get ready for the all nighter party.

Everyone dressed up in their best suits they had and checked out some cool music from the inciters and other bands with a DJ spinning it up all night till 4 AM. The atmosphere was addicting to be in as there were packs of scooterists that were excited to be with other friends of scooting. It was really hard to leave the party at all!

The rally ended Sunday with the classic  ride around the desert canyons and scenic parts of the outskirts of Las Vegas and end at Red Rock Canyon. We cruised around, took some cool photos, and then took off back to vegas to pack up and head home. Riding home was a bittersweet moment. Yes, we escaped with what little cash we had left, and we could breathe clean, smoke free air. But I’m sure all of us were a little sad to leave friends both old and new, as well as wishing that we could all ride with that big of a group all the time…

We made it out of Vegas, but not unscathed. Josh Anderson of Beehive Scooters in Salt Lake took a spill on a scooter and broke his collar bone just minutes before the first ride of the weekend was going to start and had to sit out on many rides.  And Sunday morning, we received grave news that John’s scooter was stolen from the parking lot where all the scooters were. So we have set up a donation page for John to help with him getting a new start on a scooter.

So both good and bad, Las Vegas was a time to remember. Everyone who came made the rally that much more awesome and with that said, everyone who came has now an awesome badge beside there name at the members section. Thanks to the people who came had a good time! We’ll see you this spring!

Well bees, it’s that time of the year again to brush the snow off your scooter, or take it out of the shed, and give you and your scoot a vacation! The high rollers weekend for 2010 is dated for Febuary 25th through the 28th. Registration for the rally can be done by clicking here!

As for hotels, wherever you want to stay is up to you, but for those on a tight budget, we are reserving hotel rooms and splitting the costs between whoever wants to share that room.

To get yourself a spot in a room, it’s a small fee of just $60.00 first come first serve with beds so there’s no excuse to not going! So,to either get a discount bed or to get a spot on the extreme budget room, you MUST RSVP, so give Sean a email or a phone call  (seanat brighamsbees dot com or 801 four zero four 4825)

We will all be meeting FRIDAY MORNING at 10:00 AM and leaving at 11:00 AM. There will also be another small group leaving at 6:00PM. If you are a hardcore scooterist, you can ride to vegas on your scooter Thursday with some of the Salt Lake crew.

Please also consider if you don’t have a trailer to haul your scooter that we might not have an available spot. You will need to make arrangements!

If you have any questions or concerns OR if you wanna RSVP, please email brigham at brighamsbees dot com! See you there!

We were able to successfully pull the wool over Dave and Kaerlig’s eyes when they waltzed in the door to see their friends gathered around to show their support for him and his family.

The night started off with the help of the Everitt parents getting everyone some food and eggnog whilst Taylor and Derek entertained the group and got the night rolling into an auction. From Scooter toys, Brigham’s Bees gear, BBSC custom made clocks (By Jake Everitt) to comic books, scooter oil, and so much more!

I’m not sure what the total was/is for how much was donated but I’m pretty sure it ended up well past $2400. It was a Christmas party to remember for the Bees.

We all left with a tummy ache full of eggnog, a cheerful spirit, and we all left knowing we did something awesome for “The big guy” after all the times he did something awesome for us.

A cool video was thrown together by Sean for everyone, eggnog was consumed by the gallons, and we were able to hand out another medal of honor award to Lee for his dedication to the club by assisting every way he could. Taylor was also issued a purple heart for surviving not one, but two accidents and a near miss with some dangerous cows!

And that’s gonna wrap it up for 09′! I mean, HOW could it get any better?! Squaw peak, Heber, LDS scooter rally, camping, Provo State Park, India Fest and everything in between. I know 09 has been awesome for the scooter club.

And I know 2010 will have some big shoes to fill in as far as adventures go… But if we throw in as much enthusiasm and excitement as we did last year, it can only get better.

Merry Christmas everyone and a happy new year!
