Tim, Vespas are awesome. My wife has put about 1000 miles on hers since getting it last fall. I've ridden it a few times, and it is a fun little scooter. Hers is the GTS300 and will surprisingly run 75mph easily.

Rode the moto. Mrs. Too and I lead a pal on a little romp in the mtn.s Our friends were riding a fully farkled Indian which is quite the ride. We are on a 2012 BMW GSA (last of the great oil cooled camheads yo) with a fresh set of Michelin Pilot Road 5...oh wow nice tires.

Rural Va is a delight, that's all I've got.

Rode out to Hudson on a beautiful Spring day, sat around out in front of Moto Coffee Machine sipping a latte and BS'ing with a couple guys with GS's and Ducatis.
Came home, had a nice grilled cheese, and sat around down at the pond watching Wilma hunt for fish and Tennessee swim out and retrieve his ball about a hundred times.

^^^ STOP, you're killing me here.
Sounds like you had quite a week Pete. Moto Coffee is a good as any place to rest and recover.
Picked up some honey for my honey.

Pete, I could just make a relaxing gallery of your wandering Moto images. Than again, you should just keep posting them.
I think if I had a bike like that there'd be no end to the errands I'd need to be running.
Out for a late afternoon joy ride.

Those Ural's are cool, but yeah for $1,400 something's not right...

Stopped raining for a few hours, just long enough to get a little ride in this afternoon...
