My Vespa World

May 1, 2010 by Scooter in the Sticks 3 Comments

Home from Cleveland and running Saturday morning errands on the Vespa. Thinking a lot of late about what I ride and why I ride. It was nice to be on the road this morning without that noise in my head.

It was only temporary. At Saint’s Cafe where I’m sitting now I began pouring more words into my BMW F650 GS review to get the noise cranked up again. And I saw the light–I can finish writing.

Now all I need to do is sort things out and transcribe into the computer (not ACK into the iPhone).

But until then I am going to run a few more wandering errands in my little Vespa world.

    Sojourner rides: I am working on it now. I’m just having trouble getting my thoughts straight.

    hey Steve, been reading your blog for the last year, first time commenter. I have to know if you have much experience with the G9 pictured with breakfast. i was looking at getting a G10 for a while just for a light weight but good camera to take on rides, and just have around for pics of my adorable daughter.

    Thanks so much for your insight into riding, and allowing us to see the world as it looks through your lens, my world looks similar (though a bit more urban in Cincinnati) maybe not as well composed.

    Thanks again.
