Never before heard of this bunch of crazies.  Wow. Shocked
And coming to a town near you.  500 mile day on a Vespa?  Gotta be Zen-like.
"The Scooter Iditarod"

Cut my teeth (and a shin or two) on a '62 Vespa 150; didn't know I had a death wish navigating Providence/Boston/Cambridge.
Then we graduated to 350 and 450 Hondas, evolution of the teenage brain.

It's a slow Saturday morning...what can I say?  Roaming the pages.
