Modern Vespa

I'm curious, with the cold days coming, are there any members of this forum that are "Snow Birds" and head down to Florida with their scooters?

There's a local club here which consists of mostly northern residents that come here during the months of Nov. thru April, then head back north.

nope, but my in-laws live in homosassa springs and they dread each year the coming of the snow birds...traffic, horrid drivers, accidents...

i guess the shops and stores and restaurants like the snowbirds, but the locals surely don't

What part of Florida? Here is a local site for my area:

I'm Targeting the SouthWest Florida area, Ft. Myers to be exact. Pensecola is in the Pan Handle and actually a different time zone I believe.

I live in PCola and it still gets chilly during the winter. I ride year round I just make sure I have the right gear!

I live in Homosassa and your in-laws are right about the snowbirds binding up our roads and causing accidents. I tell them to go home all the time or......get outta my way! Our stores love them and await their arrival each year. Where-abouts in Homosassa Spr are they?

Yeah all of us Floridians like to bitch about the snowbirds and tourists but fact is....we need them...and their money!


Wish I lived closer Empty.

You've got that right "Sticky". Snow Birds are what keeps Florida afloat, and I sort of prefer it that way. My biggest traffic woe is the school busses, but they too are a necessity. Key word here: "Tolerence"
