Christmas Greeting and Wishes

December 24, 2023 by Scooter in the Sticks 22 Comments

Christmas greeting from Scooter in the Sticks
Best wishes to all for a Merry Christmas.

Season’s Greetings

It’s that time of year again. Time to reflect on the blessing in life and extend good will and love to those in your life. Family, friends, and strangers on the road. To each of you reading this whether you’ve arrived searching for information on Vespa scooters or riding motorcycles, I pray you have a fine holiday.

My memories of childhood Christmas celebrations float through my head this time of year, and in my case I see a parallel between myself and Ralphie in “A Christmas Story.” It was a magical time of year. Now it’s something different.

I made a short video greeting for the holidays which is posted on my YouTube channel. Hopefully it reflects my feelings of good will to all those Vespa scooter riders out there.

Have yourself a Merry little Christmas.

Be well and ride safe!

    Lovely video! I also love that you ride year round. It’s a cool Christmas for us in south Texas but I still ride year round too. Glad tidings to you and many happy returns for a safe and blessed and cozy days for us all. Cheers!

      Thanks!

      Our winters seem to get milder every year leaving the roads dry a lot of the time. So riding year round now is a bit easier than those snowy seasons. Still need the right gear since the temperatures get low but not much snow anymore.

      I hope you and your friends and family have a fine holiday season and great New Year.

    Merry Christmas to you and yours also! I’m also reliving part of my childhood listening to a Christmas album my father used to play every Christmas while looking at our decorated tree (all my wife’s doing). Due to illness, I had to miss our celebration with children and grandchildren, but it is still a magnificent season!

      I find myself reliving my childhood Christmas memories in a similar fashion by watching old Christmas movies and listening to the music my parents played during the holidays. I miss those times.

      Best wishes for a speedy recovery and a great New Year ahead!

    Steve, thank you for a great space to enjoy and relate to the sensations of riding. You put into words what I have been trying to explain to non-riders for decades. A Happy and healthy New Year sir!
