Just to remind you what a Vespa SHOULD look like... Here's a picture of my old girl...
Yeah, I know, she's painted Orange and I'm not a Cheetahs fan (the South African Cheetahs rugby team have orange as their colour), but heck you have to admit that my old Vespa looks sweet!!!!
She is a 1967 Vespa Sprint VLB. You'll see me buzzing around Pretoria on her in both summer and winter.
I love the contrast between the paint on the bike and the bricks at my office. Don't you?
I haven't ridden her in a few days - I have an hour or so tomorrow morning, I think it's time for another ride!
Now, now, remember that ENVY is a sin! Any other Vespa lovers out there!?

Hi,
You are so prolific in the blog world I cannot keep up! Thanks for your gracious comments on 'Skypilot'. I would like to put something together someday re. in book form. The blog has really been an experiment for me in public writing.
By the way, I miss my C1 BMW I owned in Pretoria. I loved the faces of those who had their dominee arrive in a space age bubble.
Ciao

Wow, I've been looking for a 67 vespa just like that. What a beautiful machine
