blondeblogger – Cool. Glad you liked it. Those mountains are pretty cool. One nice thing about living on the Wasatch Front here in Utah.

First time watcher. That was awesome! That mountain in the background is gorgeous, by the way.

gwen – I got your email from your comment post. I just sent you email. As for the scooter, a helmet is very important, especially with Nee. And hot weather isn’t the best for a non-air conditioned vehicle, but it sure can save on the gas costs.

Seriously thinking about it. This triple digit weather is killing me though and Nee hates helmets so I may wait a little longer. do you still have my email addy? or give me yours. it’s been fun catching up on you through your blog.

tori – Thanks. Glad you liked it. And I think you and everyone else will like what I have for this next week. Then it will be back to weekly episodes until the snow hits.

And yes, life has to be lived.

This one cracked me up like crazy! I loved it! I can’t believe you are going to skip a week. Oh well, I suppose you are entitled to live your life in addition to making us cool videos.

winter – I have been working on various logos, including one for Scooter Sunday. The t-shirt idea from you and kagar is one I want to do. Thanks for the zazzle and cafepress suggestions. I will have to check them out to see how to make this work.

I love that song! This is my favorite video so far (even tho the AC/DC one was great too). I echo the t-shirt sentiment. You just need a photo of the scooter, wipe the background, slap on “I’m a Scooter Sunday Fan!”, type in the URL… Voila! Cafepress or Zazzle or whoever does all the rest of the work.

kris – As you said on the phone, the road bike doesn’t have the shock for the larger HF10. I’ll be curious to see how well the mountain bike works, with any rides that you film. As for putting together a video, by all means, I’ll post in this next sunday. Fixed Gear Sunday can hang out for the day.

kapgar – T-Shirts??? Great idea. I’ll have to add it to my list of plans for this site (which actually does include apparel). I can’t match what Dave2 has done over at Blogography, but I’ll see what I can cook up in the next few months here.

I’ve always loved that song and have wanted to pair it up with a driving or riding video. It worked better than I thought it would. And thanks for the props on the commentary. It’s fun coming up with all of it.

kevin – It’s really the song that helps inspire each episode. There’s some songs I want to use, but trying it out with some of the footage doesn’t work. And thanks for the props on the commentary.

I love this one and the choice of Tears For Fears was spot on. The commentary was hilarious. Take that Nissan Sentra!
