My first long ride on my new Vespa was from Providence to Brattleboro and back again. On the way up I was in a bit of a hurry, so I used a few highways, but on the way back, I chose a route with no highways and it was total bliss.

From the map it looks like you enjoyed some twisties; that's great. How did you feel after the ride? Did you get wet? the first pic shows some decent clouds.

That looks like a great ride! Looks like you rode right past my place in Slatersville! Could i ask, where you got your scooter? I am selling my bike and looking to get one next year.

I rained for a bit and I got wet, but then the sun came out and in ten minutes I was dry =)
After the ride I was a bit stiff, but the next morning all I wanted to do was go riding again!

I bought my scooter at Herb Chambers Vespa in Boston (actually, we bought two. The 300 for me and the 150 for my special lady friend).
