Chapter 23
Exit "0"
Rather than a motorcycle club, it is more just a group of older riders that enjoy riding and have no desire for any more rules or regulations in their life. There is no membership committee, there is no electoral body, no officers and there is no special funding or dues. There are no requirements to attend meetings or mandatory group rides. The one thing we do have, is a real desire to ride... Nothing will be expected of you except to not break the law while wearing the Old Coots On Scoots patch. Everyone who is a member has equal say in all matters, majority rules. Everyone knows how to ride together as a group so there is no need for Road Captains or a Sargent at Arms or Security Officers. We're out to have a good ride without any headaches.
Now a few words on the origin of the "Old Coots On Scoots";
The Old Coots on Scoots is an Historic Sanctioned Chapter of the AMA, Sanction #6911. It was founded in 1947 by George Harris Tucker, for the sole purpose of just having fun while riding motorcycles with friends. G. H. Tucker rode with the group until his death in 1951. George's son, Dan, restarted The Old Coots on Scoots in 1984 in Santa Rosa, California. There are now forty-one active chapters all over the country, and still growing. All members are Life Time Members, as once you are an Old Coot, you will always be an Old Coot!
