Scooter Events Boreen Point 2009 Scooteroo held their 3rd Annual Boreen Point Scooter Rally on the 7th and 8th of November, 2009.
Ben Silver We have seen this event grow in popularity quickly over the events short life. This year we had 92 rally goers riding 80 scooters of all makes and models. People love the location of the rally with Boreen Point located approx 20km north of Noosa. It makes for an easy and interesting ride from Brisbane with any number of coastal and hinterland routes to choose from. The rally is focused around one of Australia’s oldest pubs, the Apollonian Hotel. The Apollonian Hotel is famous for its laidback atmosphere and their wonderful spit roasts, they also love scooters.
The Scooteroo Boreen Point Rally is a short rally by most standards; being for only 1 night. This appeals to a larger number of people who can’t take a longer amount of time off work. Also being later in the year, time is tight for a lot of people so close to Christmas. This rally is also open to any form of scooter, from 50cc’s to big capacity modern autos to the restored classics from Vespa and Lambretta. Everyone is welcome and there is always something for everyone.
Scooteroo would like to thank all the sponsors for without their support this event would not have been possible. Vespa Australia gave away shirts to each and every attendee of this event as well as sponsoring 2 major prizes which included loan of the magnificent new Vespa GTS300. Scootersales.com.au have also been instrumental in their support of this event by spreading the word throughout the scooter community. On the Saturday night, prizes were given away for various categories from “Most Stylish Scooter” to the “Karaoke Superstar Challenge” Thanks to the sponsors of these prizes: Scooter Style – Noosa, Scooterlife, Scootopia, Scooters Scooters, The Scoota Sketcha, Revolution Scooters, Big Knobs and Suncorp Insurance who all donated their products to make the prize giveaways possible.
With such positive feedback about the 2009 Rally, Scooteroo is already looking forward to the Boreen Point Rally 2010, planning to go bigger and better, making it the largest Scooter Rally in Australia.
