Dear Laura--- I have a 1979 Vespa P-200-E altho it is down presently for bearings and rings, etc.? When I was in high school we thought that anyone that rode a scooter was about a quart low on testosterone and probably sat on a satin pillow and took ballet lessons, but when I finally got the VESPA? I found it to be the equivalent of a pack mule and can't think of anything I would rather take shopping at Wallyworld.? It is a utility vehicle and a cycle is a sport ride.? Two separate entities.??? My daughter in Dallas rides a 900 Triumph Legend and a Sportster show bike as well as any man so testosterone is not a factor? Keith Williams

And what's an H-rider?
I live in the uk you probably in the usa. I get nods from harleys normally when I'm on mine.

Could someone please shed some light on what's with that myopic down the road stare? Is it elitism or just?a lack?etiquette?

Apologies in advance to those H
riders falling outside of the aforementioned 'no-nods'.

I've just come back from my first scooter ride as going back to work tomorrow after the accident. It's fantastic, when I came back I couldn't believe I found it difficult the first 5 minutes in my street here, it's great. And accelerates better than a geared 125 from memory but that might have been me at the time :-)
I find myself thinking if I dont have to do anything else but no that's it just brake and off again. No checking for neutral no nothing.
I managed to get a nod of 1 proper biker (cruiser) not sure if the guy
recognised me but i know him from commuting in the morning. For the rest i saw loads of harleys who of course i didn't nod at, and then came the difficult bit there were other scooters, what do i do now, nod? at a scooter?? have managed it once ( a nice vespa) but nothing came back my way. Maybe it's not such a friendly community.
I think there's luggage space for 5 rucksacks instead of 1!
