Riding a Vespa LX150 at 20 degrees F.

November 26, 2005 by Scooter in the Sticks 1 Comment


Planned to ride to work this morning with the temperature a chilly 12 degrees. Was already to go until I found the black ice on the driveway and road. Took the bus rather than chance a spill in the dark on a spot of ice.

Got home and took a ride. By then the air warmed to 20 degrees and the sun made it possible to see the ice. Rode down to the Pump Station Cafe for a piece of chocolate pound cake. I really like the fact that you can park the scooter just about anywhere. I just ignore parking spaces….

    That’s a nice blog page. You sure get around. I have to admit the light at time of the morning is nice. Too bad I saw logs at that time. I’ve shot some fotos recently. 6×7. The 80mm is still in pieces. Paul
