SoCo Scooterists The goal of one of the original scooter clubs in Sonoma County is to "bring local scooterists together to ride, talk and share our passion for scooters." Prospective members can join and search for the most current rides after registering in the online forum. www.socoscoot.com.

Royal Bastards Sonoma County You have to be 'knighted' to become a Royal Bastard (in an actual sword ceremony!), but SOBs ("supporters of Bastards") are welcome to join the chapter for rides—and to be considered as candidates for Bastardom. Formed in 2010, they host second Sunday rides that take riders all over the county. www.sonomacountybastards.com.

Napa Valley Scooter Club Founded in 2003, the club hosts a ride meet-up every second Tuesday at 5pm starting at Gott's Roadside at the Oxbow Public Market, 644 First St., Napa. 707.477.0422. www.nvsc.net.
