Modern Vespa

Got about 4 inches of snow today

at least you get to see the snow. we are having only this drizzle misery from end of October probably till the end of March

Well I don't mean to brag but,

This is what I enjoy about being part of a worldwide forum you get up to the moment reports/pictures and news from fellow scooterist's, you Google map the location and think they are tucked away in a corner of the world, then you wonder do they have a motorcycle shop how do they get spares and so on.
Interesting😉👍

Over here in the Uk there's been a lot of rain since July and in the last month its got worse wind, rain local flooding.

There are lots of motorcycle shops in Anchorage although none that specialize in Vespas. I get parts from ScooterWest, usually takes 4-5 days for things to arrive.

I live in central N.Y. And put mine up for the winter this past weekend. I know I would be able to squeak in riding days here and there but once they start laying down the salt on the roads it's time.

A mix of blue sky and clouds at the moment in Porto, Portugal, but it's been raining off and on for days.

That seems really fair to me.
You do all the maintenance yourself?

naaah....throw on some studded winter tires....up, up...and away

Fully agree.

Most, but not all. There is a very good independent maintenance shop that does the difficult stuff for me.

I think you are a lucky bird there in Anchorage.
I would not expect a Vespa and Alaska to be an obvious combination.

This is fascinating, I can remember a couple of years a go on British TV a factual program called Ice Road Truckers, driving hundreds of miles across frozen lakes and snow roads to get supplies to Anchorage and I think a place called Fairbanks showing what hazards they endured on the journey, yet you can communicate with someone about the weather Hundreds of miles away on this forum .

I can remember around four decades ago I had a relative in Sidney Australia and when we spoke on the Phone after a spoken sentence you would have to wait around thirty seconds to hear the reply.

How we now can take two wires (the internet) for granted
Sorry this is NSR

I've been shoveling snow for two weeks already...although right now there is a temporary turn into warm & wet

Las-Danner,

In the land of the Midnight Sun. We have had one snow drop, which has melted away with the recent warmer weather. Our riding Season is pretty much over here in Minnesota. Although, today, it is 58 Degrees Fahrenheit and sunny. Old man Winter is right around the corner.

Our last group scooter ride was October 21st.

I'll see your 71 and raise ya 😂
But must admit chance of rain 50+ % chance of rain in the forecast fro the next 3-4 days

Year round riding here yet seriously jealous of Alaskans, living in "the last wilderness"
Also surprised to see Vespas in Alaska 👍🏽👍🏽

Isn't Summer in Germany just Winter painted green?

I live in Nanjing, China. This winter is extremely warm, temperature is around 5 to 20 every day, I guess I can enjoy my Vespa for the whole year
