"Looks like a few on here don't understand that riding a lambretta (or vespa) is just as much of a thrill as any other bike. We are not second class two wheelers ???? we don't all Potter along at 45 with lights & mirrors & we are not all mods although in life's rich tapestry each to their own. This year been to Poland Scotland, Wales (just got back from Llandudno) & others all on my 'shopping bike' & God does my arse know it ???? Been riding lambrettas since '79 & still get that buzz, plus that smell of two stroke, WOW . Long live the two wheel scene ???? " I like to think it's friendly banter I've actually never ridden one and would always treat a fellow two wheeled rider with respect | |||

"Good mile mucher. And comfortable " It is lovely to ride, we're normally two up with luggage on the back for rallies and to be fair it's not missed a beat and will sit at 75 all day on the motorway. | |||

"Thats where they come into their own. Only problem is the rust on the underside. Welded up.afew that where bad" Ours is a 2005 with no rust.. maybe we was lucky but people do say the early 250's are the better option. | |||

" Was it a px or gts. Some trip on one" GTS My mum had just got home after an unplanned stay in hospital. Looked at flights, trains, hire cars. Bank holiday weekend. So I just jumped on the little machine instead. Well, what a super day out it was - the temperature all the way there and back was gorgeous. 10 hours going north it took me. One of these things you do once and then you're wise enough not to do again lololol | |||

"Scooter fun... that's an oxymoron surely All welcome as far as I'm concerned, been to plenty of rallies in the past where the scooter guys turn up. The mods and rockers thing thankfully died off and we are all taking the same risks out on the roads. " Whats an Oxy? And, who are you calling a moron? | |||

"I ride a Moto Guzzi 1100 Sport bit, just had a holiday in Rome and hired a Vespa (twist-and-go) 125 for a day; it was brilliant, I rode like an Italian around all the famous Roman sites and even got stopped by the police (a minor mis-understanding). I've definately for an appreciation for scooters now and wouldn't rule out owning one." It's a great scene that seems to be growing again. | |||

"God, I went to that, is that really how long ago it was ago, that's made me feel old Indeed it is, absolute carnage hence why it's taken this long for the council to allow another." That's what the scene was like in those days, we where the devil incarnate. It's calmed down a bit nowadays & some councils actively encourage us to have rallies in their towns. Look at Bridlington this year they held their own council backed scooter festival the same weekend as the official southport rally. | |||

"Accommodation now booked for the IOW, that's us done, tenby, merthyr, Weymouth, IOW and woolacombe all booked. What's the Merthyr rally. ?" It's just a small local event, well organised but pretty small.. I think it's called scooters on the square. | |||
