This is a photo by Shaners Beckers that is another Flickr find. This fleet of Vespa LXs is dressed up as flamingos, he says, to advertise pink flamingos arriving at the Seattle zoo. I wonder what the riders were wearing?

Those look like Vespas. I wonder if the pink stuff came off. Interesting and attention-getting idea.
Don’t flamingos have to eat a lot of shrimp or something colored pink to get that color on thier feathers? So where did they find pink gasoline to feed the scooters to make the scooters turn all pink like that?
Uh, put shrimp IN the gasoline??
A company called Scooter Media does these promotions. I rode for them last year, when they were promoting the zoo’s Masaai Journey exhibit. The scooters were covered in fake leopard or zebra fur, which is attached to the bikes with gaffer’s tape.
I saw this group on the road. They were dressed in pink, with feathers on their helmets.
Wow, that is so cool.
