Teresa Perrera- I am the proud owner of a 2001 Aprilia Scarabeo 50, a 2004 Aprilia Mojito Custom 150 and a 1961 Vespa 125 (now a 150). I've tried to make my scooters different with my one of a kind seat covers. I have bunches of them and boy do they turn heads.  Besides scooting, I'm also an avid horsewoman/cowgirl. I think I just like to go fast. On my scooters, (well okay, on two of them 45 top speed isn't that fast, but my Mojito 150 is speedy!) and on my horse (not sure how fast he goes). I also like to dance, eat (I absolutely love to eat), and spend time with good friends. I'm the founder of the Baltimore Bombshells and am so happy to be surrounded by these fabulous women and see other women joining. Happy Scooting!

Stacey Barich a.k.a Action Girl- I'm one of the first Bombshells, Teresa's right-hand gal, Bombshells webmistress and the proud owner of a 2001 Bajaj Chetak and a 1965 Allstate (in progress). My hobbies include scooting, vintage cars, swing dancing, painting Baltimore Hons, and collecting anything Tiki or atomic 50's. I work at a Publishing company where I'm the communications manager/party thrower.

Jen Schein- I'm originally from Cleveland, Ohio and moved to Columbus for college and found out all about Vespas. I got my first bike (a gorgeous blue p200) in '97. been through about 10 or so bikes since then, including a '57 handlebar bike (that got stolen...grrrr!) a smallframe racer, and various and sundry bikes in various and sundry stages of running. I'm left now with a rally 210 project, a few frames, and a purple smallframe. Unfortunately, my baby smallframe (her name is Jane) got stolen with the handlebar bike and trashed. I'm hoping to fix her up so I can ride with the bombshells soon!! I've lived in Maryland for a little over 3 years, and in Baltimore for about a year until recently moving to Chattanooga, TN to open a scooter shop.

Susan B- I started riding scooters nearly eight years ago, when I got the keys to an old Vespa for my birthday, and haven't looked back since.  I'm the Bombshells token "Greater Baltimore" member.  This means that I actually live in the Washington DC Area.  It's a nice scoot across the Baltimore-Washington Parkway to go hang with my 'Shells.

Karen Jefferson- I've been riding for a few years and ride a pretty green Vespa Granturismo every chance I get, especially if there are other Bombshells to ride with! I also am the proud owner of a restored Vespa P200, the beauty Strawberries 'n Cream. I love riding with the Bombshells even if it means getting drenched in pouring rain, or freezing while waiting for a parade to begin, but especially when invading the best thrift shops in all of Baltimore. When I don't get to ride I'm busy working as a software developer or running my son allover town from one thing to another. Ciao!


Holly Tominac - It's a lot of fun to be me! I enjoy making a spectacle of
myself, finding strange and mysterious objects on the ground/in
thriftstores/in dumpsters, and belly dancing. When I'm not dancing or
playing on the trapeze or otherwise up to something, I'm working as a
librarian at the Enoch Pratt Free Library in downtown Baltimore. I love my Aprilia Scarabeo 150 because I can fit an inordinate amount of stuff in the top and side cases, and because it cruises comfortably at 70 mph!

Cathy Rouse -  I am a satellite Bombshell, living in Atlanta where I was born and raised. My previous riding experience was swiping my brother's Yamaha Mini Enduro when I was eleven. After riding bitch for nine months on husband Stan's ET4 I was itching for my own. Got my 1979 P200E in October 2002 and still wonder why I waited so long to get back on two wheels! I ride everywhere and in all kinds of weather. Now I'm ready for a project bike, hmmm, what will it be? I'm an artist and I've always had creative jobs, from visual merchandising to floral design to makeup artist to painting furniture and canvasses. I'm happiest when I'm making a mess or three, whether it's with roots and dirt, engine parts (I'm learning to wrench!), paint, or food. I love color and shape, and am easily distracted by pretty, shiny things. I love to throw parties-. I especially love getting my different kinds of friends together and watching them fight- err, I mean interact!

Jen Sparenberg- Jen Sparenberg    Self-professed geek and proud owner of a cobalt blue 2002 Vespa ET4.  Raised in Baltimore, living in Greenbelt with my partner and our three cats.  I don't really have hobbies, per se, but I like groovy furniture, interior design, comicbooks and working on my garden ("the garden of misfit plants").

Dawn Grace Russell- I am another satellite bombshell. With sulky girl, we are the "Georgia satellites!?" was born and bred in Chicago, moved to Atlanta in 1996 to learn how to tattoo from one of the best artists in the field. I have never learned how to drive a car! I ride a 1980 p200e named Bella. She is my heart riding around on two wheels. Someday I will have a pink GS. And a Lambretta, and a Bella, and a Stella?

Melissa Martens - a newcomer to the fabulous Bombshells, I'm the rider of a saucy, red Yamaha Vino. After dreaming about owning a scooter for years, I finally bit the bullet, and now dream of an entire fleet of 'em! I'm a devoted city-dweller, and like to cause all kinds of urban trouble including: parties, performance art, plays, pageants, parades, and anything over-the-top and extravagant! I'm also the curator of a local museum; riding into the museum on a scooter keeps them guessing

Chelsea- I woke up one sunny late winter day of winter 1999 and decided I needed a scooter. I don't think I had even seen one before really, since Ohio is a bit short on 2 wheeled non-Harley vehicles, but somehow Vespas deposited themselves in my brain via the collective unconsciousness. Similarly, I woke up again on a cold winter day in 2002 and ended up owning a shop Scomo, mail order bits for your Vespa or Lambretta. Now I have more scooters and scooter parts than...well, a whole lotta folks...

Jenn Pivar- After watching all our Mod friends ride and then crash their bikes back in Los Angeles in the 1980s, my husband and I finally decided that we were mature enough to get our own. The first bike was his birthday present: a 1958 Lambretta TV175 series 1. We're now the proud owners of 6 bikes, of which I claim: a 1961 GS 150 Augsburg and a 1980 100 Sport (now a 130). When not riding around with the Imperials, I'm either hanging out with the Imperials, with my dog Rudi, or working as an attorney in Atlanta
