What is "scootering"

n. The activity of riding a scooter, often specifically a kick scooter vb. (present participle of scooter English)

Scootering is a British magazine published by the Morton's Media Group, and covers classic motorscooters, primarily Vespa and Lambretta, the people who ride them, and products of interest to scooterists. The first issue of Scootering was published by Myatt McFarlene in May 1985 with Mike Roberts as the editor. After Mike's death in 1987 Gareth Brown became editor. In 1989 Myatt McFarelne purchased Scooter Scene magazine from Stuart Lanning and made Lanning the editor of the combined magazines. Lanning eventually bought the title from Myatt Mcfarelene and continued to publish it himself as 'Scootering Publications' until 2002.

Lanning sold the title to Mortons Media Group in January 2003 and former features writer Andy Gillard became editor. In January 2016 Gillard resigned after 18 years at Scootering magazine, 13 of those years as editor – the longest serving in the magazine's history. Dan Clare, owner of Scooterotica has subsequently been employed as an editor.
