No, that footage was all from earlier rides. The "whoopsie" was from a video of a late April ride where I dumped the Himalayan. A wonderful opportunity for personal growth!

Took the Stella out yesterday. Nearly 100 miles without a blip.
I've been thinking of selling her and buying a new Sprint 150, but I don't even know now. Maybe I'll just ride her into the sunset. ![]()

Took a similar ride Saturday on the Aprilia 50. About 70 miles. It was a beautiful morning.

I'm posting this video I made because one of the sections has a montage of my Vespa GTS images. Perhaps you'll find them interesting.

A great video. You could try producing a counterpoint video entitled '5 things I DISLIKE about the Vespa 250', but I don't think you'd find enough reasons.

After allowing my 2006 Vespa GTS 250 to languish in the garage waiting for my lazy ass to install a new front brake caliper and battery we finally went for a ride on a cold winter day.
It's love all over again. ![]() My 2006 Vespa GTS 250 on a cold winter day in Central Pennsylvania.

I was checking out your website. http://vespalx150.blogspot.com/2007/09/vespa-photographs.html
Your banner photograph is of my great grandfather's farm. He built the house and the old barn. He sold the farm to the Beiler family many decades ago. In the last year the Beiler family has experienced a couple tragic farm accidents. My parents live a 1/4 mile down the road. |

My parents live a 1/4 mile down the road. I read about the Beiler silo accidents. Very sad. I spent most of my career in ag sciences and farm safety issues around silos and asphyxiation were almost constant. That and ROPS for tractors. And shut off the engine before pulling corn stuck in your corn picker or combine. Penns Valley is a beautiful area. |
