Scooter-Relief.org Aid and support for scooterists in need

via Collin (of Sportique) from the bbs:

Guys, please feel free to repost this to other boards: modernvespa, modernbuddy, 2sb, club sites etc, etc THANKS!

The girl who was a victim of the hit-and-run in Denver on her Buddy 125 was Paula Barlow. She is a sweetheart and rides every day in all weather. She is banged up bad and the dude that hit her is still on the loose.

Paula has been a Sportique regular for many many years. She is a trip. Her first scooter was one of those Puegeot big-wheel scoots from the late nineties. She has had several others of the past ten or so years including a Kymco Cobra, a Kymco People and a Buddy 50. Her Buddy 125 was the bike she finally settled on and she loved the thing to pieces. Her scooter had virtually become her identity. Every time Paula came into the Scooter shop she flirted with all the guys there up one side and down the other. She's hilarious.

Please her send well-wishes from ALL OVER THE PLACE! Paula will really appreciate it. She has not got many friends or family to show her support right now....let's be her scooter family. In fact, when I called her house her neighbor was tending to her affairs. Send postcards or whatever to:

It is unclear if Paula will be in need of assistance. We will keep up on the situation and let folks know.
