The Vespa thread

Best put some very dark sunglasses on before you lay eyes on it, you don’t want to get scared by your own sofa 🥶😇😆😎

Scottish town to welcome 1,300 Lambretta fans this weekend​

Lambretta scooter in front of castle


Just the fans and not the scoots, as they will all be broken down on the way - they will get further than Vespa's though 🛵💥
 
Scooters do nothing for me but I've got to respect the scooter boys who ride serious miles on the things. You see them up here quite often on the A68, probably headed for Scotland or coming back from there. Always loaded up to the gunwales with luggage, most of it in bin liners old-school style. They ride the length and breadth of the country on those little bikes in all weathers going to rallies. And then you see 30 grand adventure bikes with all the accessories that rarely get ridden further than the local bike meet.
 
A few times a year there are scooter meets in Scarborough and Bridlington.
I used to enjoy pottering along behind crowds of them on my way home from work inhaling 2 stroke fumes
Reminded me of my youth when we blasted around the country on Japanese 250s
They are dedicated fellas you couldn't pass a lay by or farm entrance that didn't have a crowd of old blokes stood scratching their heads around a stripped down scooter
 
Morecambe had its annual scooter rally a couple of weekends ago - saw plenty on their way there.

I got talking to a bloke while waiting for my Speedie getting serviced who rode to the Swiss alps on his, with his Mrs driving their car. I thought she must be a pain in the arse for him to do that.
 
And then you have Vespas which are fab for all genders but you do need to have a love for incredible iconic design, not something what a bimota owner can grasp 🤷🏻‍♂️, maybe better to stick to collecting sofa’s and hairdressers kit cars😎😇😆
I have many bikes of which the Forums most aesthetically pleasing is one and don't own a Porsche or any other open top roadster (or a Diavel for that matter) but I do have a rather wonderful sofa :love:

Maybe it’s time to alter your taste a bit and attract some female attention closer to home, a nice Lamborghini would be a good starter, nice Ray-ban , some new Italian shoes, throw away the tassel jacket and there you go …..

No need, I have my rather wonderful charm as well you know 😇
True but there is always room for improvement 🥶😎
