Touring300,
With the widespread use of cell phones, public telephones are disappearing on this side of the pond. Does that classic Red Phonebooth actually work? Bob C Minnesota |

Touring300,
Also very popular here in Minnesota. Not in old phone booths. On most blocks in Minneapolis, there are enclosed boxes in front of houses where books are shared. Bob Copeland It has not been above 70 degrees F in six months. Hopefully back on the scooter trail soon. |

The fruit shop gave me the basket on back and it's worked out great for carting all sorts of things around town. Seems like you see more Ukrainian than Italian or EU flags these days.

Despite the war unleashed by Russia against my country, we still sometimes find time for a short ride in the company of good friends.
And although now the pleasure from trips are not as bright as before - we simply cannot not ride. This allows us to relax and unwind a little.

roland87,
Gob bless you sir. It is amazing what good folks will do for freedom. I think individual rights are fragile. Even here in the USA, it is an experiment in the value of the individual over tryanny of the majority. In this country, our founding fathers said, here is a republic if your choose to keep it. World events seem to threaten us like your country. I am glad a scooter ride gives you good heart. Best from Minnesota. Bob Copeland

roland87,
Thanks so much for this photo post. Truly hero's all. Maybe a small measure, but the USA is trying to help with arms and other support. I can not believe there is a war in Europe. Other NATO countries also appear to be stepping up. Best to you. Bob Copeland Minnesota USA

Sliding photos on my phone and find these ones.
It is from 20.11.2021 and my workhorse LML 200 4 stroke on way from my work to home. From Kyiv center to the suburb. It was very exciting and fun 14 kms. Near the office.
In the suburb.
In the suburb.
Grarage is so close.

Many thanks Roland for all the great photos.
(1) Keeping with the Ukraine theme, here's my scooter at a recent gathering. Thankfully Ukraine is now officially an EU candidate. (2) A Lambretta 125 spotted on the street (3) A Chinese made EV2000 made to look like a vintage Vespa. I'd never seen one of these before. I've read that the top speed is a disappointing 45 km/h, though it does have a range of 50km. Grazie Popolo Italiano
