I love being out before the world wakes up. The Vespa does too!

Love that dawn pic.. and glad to discover you have been a longtime part of the MV group!

I just got my scoot a few weeks ago and then discovered MV..but ran across your "Scooter in the Sticks" blog and pics when I was doing my research on what to get for a ride. I absolutely fell in love with your pics!! As I was telling Surfan the other day when I saw a nice pic of his in the gallery, seeing what you did/do with your Sticks blog was partly what inspired me to wind up getting my Vespa, as opposed to another ride.

Really, really look forward to seeing more of your pics!

Thanks for the kind words about the pictures. As much as I like the dawn what I really like, seldom do, is ride at night under a full moon. In open areas it is surreal. Sometimes I wish I could turn off the headlight.

It's usually visually better in the winter but I hope to try and make some night photos one of these nights...

Yes, I'm posting on Scooter in the Sticks again. Not sure what or how often but as things come up or I have pictures worth sharing I'll post.

Sure are a lot of new Vespas around town. Need to figure out how to show that...
