Comments on: Mr. Ruby Goes to Sicily https://scooterinthesticks.com/2014/01/mr-ruby-goes-to-sicily/ Exploring life on a Vespa, Royal Enfield Himalayan, Honda Trail 125, and a Kawasaki W650 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:58:47 +0000 hourly 1 By: David Masse https://scooterinthesticks.com/2014/01/mr-ruby-goes-to-sicily/#comment-8325 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 14:57:24 +0000 http://69.195.124.229/~scootet3/?p=46#comment-8325 Susan and I, our three kids, and two SOs are spending a week in Tuscany in late May.

I’m already checking out Vespa rentals. There’s a shop in Pontedera that rents Vespas at 65 Euros a day, and includes a visit of the Piaggio museum. It’s about 45 minutes from the place where we’ll be staying near Lucca.

The website says “helms included” and by that I hope they mean helmets and not that it’s the handlebars that are included.

Sicily by Ural? That wouldn’t only be fun, it would be epic!

We’ll have to wait and see.

I’m looking harder all the time at the new non-DSLR cameras. So far, aside from the Canon G15, I’ve not found the perfect digital camera for use in my world of personal photography…

Two days, two flights cancelled. Maybe you should change your plans and visit Bellefonte…

Hopefully he’ll more forthcoming than his coverage of the Cape Cod trip.

I did find his account the Florida outing oddly satisfying.

I’m definitely waiting for more.

I actually pre-ordered and received my Fuji X-E2 before Christmas BUT our son liked it too much and I have not even had a chance to even HOLD it. Rather than purchase a duplicate one I bought an RX100M2 instead.

I am more of a 28mm shooter so that rules the X100s OUT. I used to carry around my M6 with 28mm as I find 35mm perspective too telephoto
