The BMW Group extends the MINI brand further today in London by showing a range of concept electric scooters, currently called the MINI Scooter E Concept, with funky retro styling based on the MINI.
BMW say "It’s not just a two-wheeler in MINI Design - this scooter meets the needs of the young urban generation: Spontaneous, flexible, CO2-free mobility. Using a smart phone as the ignition key, the concept integrates infotainment, communication and navigation systems. The MINI Scooter E Concept is powered by an electric motor which can be recharged at any conventional power socket using an on-board charging cable."

Motorcycle Cannonball Endurance Run - Old Bikes Hit the Road
As I mentioned in a previous blog entry, The Motorcycle Cannonball Endurance Run has begun. This is a coast-to-coast run of pre-1916 motorcycles starting from Kitty Hawk, North Carolina and ending in Santa Monica, California. Dates for the run are September 10-26, 2010. Check out the Cannonball Run website for everything you might want to know about this historic run. (I've noticed that the website can be slow to load or even produce dreaded Internal Server Errors.)

Keep checking the Cannonball Run website for daily updates. Hopefully, we may see some coverage of this event on TV.
