All in good time - patience is a virtue

Isn't this an amazing old Vespa VLB? This is one that was restored to an almost 'new' retro look - if you look at some of my older photos you'll see that my Vespa originally came in a similar silver to this.
If my Vespa is back up to speed before we leave Pretoria I am going to put my white wall tires on her! I have a set just like this in a box in my office just begging to go into action!
Patience is a good thing - but so is a little bit of healthy motivation!

Nice bike, Dion. Did you see my Bajaj Pickup on my blog? It's a rebadged Vespa Ape (i.e. continued production under another name), made in India, and still a recognisable affinity with the 1948 model. There's a (very small) picture on my blog now.

Hey Wes,
Thanks for the comment, please check my flickr set for an 'after an encounter with a 4x4' photo.

And, this is what it looked like way back in the day (before it was restored).

And THIS is what it looked like BEFORE the 4x4 got hold of it... I hope it will look like this in a few weeks!
