Really was tired of the cold this time and just couldn’t wait for the world to return to life…

I’m surprised how well the Vespa still looks after all the pictures I’m made…

The exhaust gets rattier every year. One of these days a hole is going to develop. Will pull it off the scooter soon and repaint…

Glad I can afford a connection to central Pennsylvania.

I’ve been meaning to watermark my photos for years and now after thousands without I’ve started. First batch was too heavy handed, second less so, and with your comments I have reduced the size and opacity yet again. That’s for that feedback. Let me know what you think about the next version.

Road this morning with the temperature at 40F. Plenty warm enough to ride. Tomorrow it will be near 80F. That’s getting hot!

Used to think it would be cool to partner with them in some way to push the idea of the Vespa as a suburban and rural machine for adventure. Who knows…

The vegetable oil spray sounds like a good idea. I’ll have to give that a try.

I did my my first Vespa — an LX150, in that building. I’ve been around since the 1970s so I probably saw the Suzuki and Yugo dealership but just don’t recall. Kissell Motorsports was in there from maybe 2005 (?) until they moved down the road to the former State College Athletic Club building. That’s’ where I bought my GTS.

State College just keeps changing…

Spring is the time of new life!

Nuff said!

Happy roads….
