Welcome; reflections on riding a Vespa

October 2, 2005 by Scooter in the Sticks 5 Comments

I bought my Vespa LX 150 two months ago and am having so much fun that I thought I need to share the joy…

So I will be posting my ongoing adventures so those of you who may be on the fence about ditching the pickup truck may be prodded to jump into the scooting world.

I love only having to put gas in my Ford Ranger once every six weeks.

    I can’t resist. This is more like time travel than anything else I’ve ever experienced. Meeting the two of you in 2013 was (will be?) a treat that will become a cherished memory for years to come. Cheers guys!

    David Masse: You are one of the rare few that have commented on this first post. It’s very strange for me to look through the posts over time. Real time travel weirdness!

    […] Ruby and I have been riding together since I bought my first Vespa in 2005. The miles on winding roads can’t be measured. In many cases those rides have been forgotten […]
