Thanks David. Can’t go wrong when you’re writing about a celebrity!

I have the same throttle lock. How else can you adjust the right mirror on the fly 🙂

Nice post Steve. The ‘Chang Effect’. An honour to be sure.

I’m not sure what Dom has mounted on the handlebars. Perhaps he or some other URAL rider can weigh in.

Dom,

I’m only sharing my experiences with you without embellishment or bias.

It was a pleasure going for a ride with you again and I’m glad fortune shined on me and my illness had receded enough to allow me to venture out on the Vespa.

Unfamiliar has a variety of meanings. For riders in can refer to the physical qualities of the road surface, the landscape in which the road traverses, or the location. For each a rider may or may not be comfortable. I like to think being lost on the road is the absolute best place to find yourself but most riders would probably not agree. Just check how many use GPS to avoid those feelings.

I suppose every rider finds his own situation where they feel they’re in their element.

The Chang Effect creeps up on you. And now you are riding a URAL yourself!

I hope I can keep up with things you find interesting. Thanks for the words of support!

Also, in a light hearted manner I have left a link to my Flickr site following a recent visit to Papua New Guinea. It’s more boat than scooter country but it won’t be long.
