Club badges, crests & logos

[Diversion]

Do you belong to a Motorcycle, Scooter or Touring Club -- does your club have a badge or crest?

Post your crest here and if I get enough, I'll make a slideshow logo just of the crests.  I need 16 to make it effective.

We have a patch.  The name of our club is ScootMA (Scoot Massachusetts).  Our Colonial Patriot is sporting a blue shirt, white haversack, brown britches and of course his gray tri-cornered hat.  Not to be left out are his military issue riding boots.  His steed is a late model Vespa GTS 250 with a late model "old glory" flying off the stern.  He measures 4½"↕ tall and 2½"↔ at the shoulders.  Once flourishing with as many as 15+ members atttending our weekend breakfast rides, we are now but a few.

Reminds me of the old New England Patriots logo.



By the way, never knew what a haversack was until you posted this.  Thanks!

I thought everyone knew what a haversack was.

I thought everyone knew what a haversack was.

I still have absolutely no clue

A haversack is a bag, usually carried by a single shoulder strap. Although similar to a backpack the single shoulder strap differentiates this type from other backpacks.

Now we can back on topic.

[davew]

now we would call it a "man purse"

[Valalvax]

Lol, ok, thanks

Surprised Maggie hasn't posted one? Does SLSC not have one?

[davew]

I have ALWAYS disliked out club logo that one of my former founders did.  I have been to lazy to create a new one.  I have one in mind and one of these days when I have nothing to do (as if) I will unveil a new logo.

This is a good concept what I don't like about it most is I always felt the tire should have been on the bottom portion of the reflection,   (Ya know rubber side DOWN) with the Arch on top.

Why am I so late in answering these posts? 

Don't have a scooter crest or logo, but the word haversack bought back many happy memories of hiking with our Boy Scout troop many years ago.

My first packsack was a WWII "haversack" bought at an army surplus store for around 49 cents.  Single strap bag which used to carry a gas mask.  Used it on many hikes.

Graduated to a "rucksack", two strap packsack.  We also called them "knapsacks".

Then to a Trapper Nelson packboard which I used for many years.

OK.  Back on topic.

What an educational place, though I've heard all the terms at one time or another, I never knew they were different things or how to tell them apart if I ever come across a haversack or rusksack determination situation, I'm now well prepared, all because I bought a scooter.

Rouncheer, when I was younger a paper bag was most often called a 'poke'. A short time after venturing out into the world, a young grocery store cashier was a bit surprised and incapable of rendering a response when I asked if I could have a poke. I knew there were other terms, 'poke' was still dominant, so within a couple of seconds I realized she was having difficulty with 'poke' and asked if I could have a bag. About that time the cashier on the next line, who was standing right behind me busted out laughing. Also being a transplant, approximately ten years older thirtyish, living in California much longer than I and speaking both languages she translated for both of us. It wasn't simply a failure to comprehend my request, the term had a completely different meaning in that region. As I was walking out several store workers had gathered around the translator and she was recounting the episode. Before I reached the door she yelled, "Sugar, you come through my line next time, I'll give you a poke any time." I was half way home before I realized. I believe a paper bag was also called a sack in some regions. Is a tote sack and shopping bag the same thing?

IMO a Tote sack would be a heavy duty bag made out of cloth, whereas a shopping bag would be a plastic bag (these days anyway)

Here's the patch of the club I belong to in Victoria Canada. Most of the members ride smaller scoots but we've recently had a surge of maxi-scoot riders joining.
