You may be wondering what the title of this post has to do with Scootering?   Well nothing much really, Anthony revisited the "Pirates of The Carribean" movies over the weekend and has been telling stories again.   As well as being a fan of scooters (among many other things.....) he's also a big movie fan; and while he was off having fun on the weekend (without me...again!!) he got a chance to watch the exploits of Capt Jack Sparrow.

It then got me thinking, if Jack Sparrow traded the Black Pearl for a scooter - what would it be?

Obviously it would be black, it would be simple, practical, a bit flashy, (with flames perhaps?), it would have storage space for rum bottles.....and then just as my ego was doing great, and I was thinking I would be a suitable scooter for a famous pirate, I began to realise that Capt Jack Sparrow wouldn't ride a Monaco....it would have to be something more like this......

Yes, that's more like it......

I'm looking forward to some rides this week, (as long as the weather improves...) It will be good to get out of the garage and cruise up the coast. And although I may complain that I don't get out that often, I do love the rides that we have....and I was recently lucky enough to gain some further insight into why Anthony's time has been otherwise occupied lately. No complaints here at all.... 

So that's it for this week.....I'll have another update on the rides during the week and will no doubt have some stories to tell.   See you on the black stuff, ride safely, scoot often, and have fun......

As a result of all this pirate stuff, there is only one possible winner of Monaco's Celebrity Pillion Passenger of the Week.  She is 23, is a lifelong supporter of West Ham United FC and goes to her local pub whenever possible to watch their games.  Her favourite book is War and Peace, she has been part of a film franchise that has grossed close to $3 Billion worldwide, she plays the role of "Elizabeth Swan"....the daughter of "Governor Weatherby Swan", the wife of "Will Turner", she was left on an island and lit a big fire, and as a result (and to Jack's horror...) "all the rum is gone!"......

She is the one and only Keira Knightly.
