I had a pretty awesome day today. I collected this beast:
Despite my previous trepidation, I managed to ride it home without dying.
I took it for a ride out to my place of work – a practice run – and generally enjoyed scooting about.
It was strange riding home from the dealership on a Vespa; the road home is a popular route for Vespa enthusiasts and I kept getting nods and waves from other Vespa riders. At first I thought that they’d mistaken me for a member of their secret fraternity of bikers, until I realised that I actually was one.
