You really need to work on your subject matter. There's nothing particularly interesting about these photos. No interesting composition. No abstract angles. Nothing other than life through a lens. If that's the look you're going for, you nailed it.
But right now you're looking very much like a teenager with a dslr shooting anything that looks even remotely photogenic.
Shoot something INTERESTING and post it up. Sure, practice on whatever you've got around your neighbourhood, but don't post them. They're just average happy snaps that anyone with a decent camera can shoot.

Do you expect him to hop aboard an airplane every weekend to amazing parts of the world to take pictures to post on scooter resource?

You don't need to leave your neighbourhood to take interesting photos.
The idea of photos is to store a memory, capture a moment in time, tell a story. Taking photos of a shadow covering a keyhole doesn't really capture anything other than a moment in your front door's life.
It's like watching television, if they made tv shows that were basically people filming everyday life, like a shot of some cars driving up a road, what do you think their viewer base would be like compared to a show about some maniacal serial killer?
You've gotta take photos of things that are interesting, memorable and have some sort of significance in time.
