I left the house this morning to head downtown and get some coffee. Imagine my surprise when the scooter wouldn’t start. It wouldn’t even turn over. It was dead. NOTHING!
I mean, it looks like a normal scooter, right?

I lifted up the rubber mat though that is supposed to cover the battery panel keeping it clean […]

Last night the blogsavannah team (or part of it) was walking down Broughton after a meal of, you guessed it, Thai food, when we heard a diesel sound come rumbling our way. Within a second we were parallel to a large white Excursion with two bikes on the back and one bike-looking thing on the […]

So, after months of riding scooters, BlogSavannah is pleased to see the Downtown Precinct of the Police riding a couple. They were commissioned this morning at City Hall at 11am.

Ok, I know we are not breaking journalistic ground with this report but it is so cool I think WE should be the ones talking about it. Now, put aside the new Clint Eastwood movie and your “Band of Brothers” DVD. I even recommend setting aside personal political agendas and other such thoughts. […]

THIS JUST IN:
Due to the success of our last outing we are holding a 1st Sunday Monthly Motoring Meet for MINI owners at Starbucks in the Twelve Oaks Shopping Center on Abercorn Street at 10am. This event is very informal. We don’t have any special plans but it will include driving somewhere […]

Maybe you have seen something like it in Singapore? Maybe you call it a rickshaw. Perhaps you even thought it was a modern day surry…without the fringe, of course. It isn’t though. You see, Savannah is unique in many ways. One of them being the presence of the Pedicab. […]
