Mine originated from the fact that I must be Barking Mad to have this many Vespa's and live in Vietnam.

Obviously from my first name and the fact that my V90 and Met are little scooters. Just didn't seem right to change to Tommybigscooter or Tommymediumscooter when I got the P2's and the BV.

The wife says my scooters are my midlife crisis. I still want my cafe racer. Then the crisis will be complete.

When I started here I had no idea what I was getting into. I spent literally five seconds thinking about it. Vintage Red is the name of the color of my GTS. It was only available for one year.

HI,
Mine originated as a miss-spelling of "Abuelo", or "grand father" in Spanish. There are a number of "grandfathers" in our family, so I chose a miss-spelling form, AKA "Abuello" ...and now, you know the rest of the story...... Happy Trails.... |

I have a bajaj chetak. When I first bought it I googled "chetak" and quickly learned that the scooter was named after the horse ridden by a famous Indian war hero of ancient times.
I loved the absurdity of it. |

I look like that knucklehead who was the leader of the lost boys in the the movie HOOK. I'm his dopleganger from then. I guess he looks different now, but I still look like Rufio now. I even partied up with Baywatch actors way back when because they thought I looked like him.

I grew up in Hawaii. Since I was little Kid, I was known as "that Haole kid" or "Haole" or "Haole C".
Haole is the Hawaiian word for white person. And depending on the tone and inflection, it could be a negative or a descriptive. It's always been a nickname, even now at 51 my old friends still use it. |
