    You can wear it when you're not in the scooter! But they definitely won't let you wear it and even if you did, I guarantee it would blow off!

    Thanks, I havent bought the deal so wont be going :( problem solved

    Just because of the hat situation? Such a shame, it's great fun!

    It may sound stupid, but yes the hat is a huge issue, the rest of holiday would be ruined with a burnt head and face :(

    Only just saw this and just checked and while I could see about 437 episodes of the show (ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a little) scrolling through I could not see the Vegas one...one for Utah, but not Vegas...:(
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    MMM a beanie to hot and not sure how to wear a bandana (I am getting old). Definitely want to wear a hat or covering. I dont go outside anywhere when in Vegas without a hat

    But I can understand your reluctance, especially if you burn easily...it never occurred to me before but now it is and I'm pretty sure that I'd prefer to wear something on my head if we ever did the Scoot City thing...a couple of holiday incidents with sunburned scalp weren't nice (I am not bald, just in case anyone was thinking it) I will watch the bandana video too just in case. :)

    You should be able to get it on On demand or whatever it is now. If you can't let me know, and I'll record the one I have on the planner for you.

    Watched it last night, you are not missing anything. The guy that does it is an idiot. It's really old as well, standing at the top of the Strat you could see the Stardust in the background
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    filmed in 2006, always worth watching anything Vegas related just to see it :D Now back to the Montecito ;)

    re: the hat/scoot situation... you certainly won't get too hot wearing a beanie/bandana, you'll be whizzing along 30mph in an open top/sided buggy, so quite a breeze (even long sleeves for when you're driving along isn't a bad idea). then just take it off for your hat of choice at the stops along the way :)
