One of the nicest guys you'll ever hope to meet is over here from the UK
and maybe heading your way on a loaded down, green, smallframe Vespa.

ah - coming through Des Moines!

We have a great group of Vespa riders here that could hook him up with an evening of fun.

How do we contact him?

Certifiable. But good on him if he makes it. A trip like that takes some dedication.

Gonna have to keep an eye on that thread, I did a round the US trip when I was 17/18. But I did it in a 73 VW Transporter can't imagine doing it on a small frame! Kudos dude kudos!!

Where is he at right now? Couldn't tell from the blog. Yeh that's some hardcore dedication there to do that on a smallframe. Almost Giorgio Bettinelli like.
