This is actually a pretty cool photo - dig the parka. If this is you, sorry about your luck! I know all too well what having to push home in the snow is like!

And that is why my Vespas are in bed for the winter. I used to be that guy. I didn't like being that guy. 8)

Either I am blind or us in the states don't get to see the scooterist in the snow. All I see is a shot of a tunnel and a kid walking next to a car with <3 U Mum.

Man, that must really suck. I'd never be able to do that with my GTV. I'm not balanced enough unless I'm actually sitting on it, and both of my arms are weak from past surgeries. Hope the poor guy made it home alright!
