Vespa Rookie

[ali]

I'm dead excited if not a little terrified. I've just bought me a Vespa LXV 125.

2 wheeled motoring is all new to me...please pass on some warm words of encouragement.

Also any rallies or things going on in the Bristol Bath area would be good to know about,

cheers
Ali

Hi Ali - welcome to the forum. Just have fun and be safe!

There's a rally dates page on the main website, if you want to keep an eye on that, which you'll find here: www.vespa.org.uk/rally%20dates.htm

and also individual clubs have a page for their rallies and weekenders etc here: www.vespa.org.uk/scootering%20events.htm

Hello Ali
most of the 4 wheeled monsters are okay just watch out for the 4x4s - they seem to forget that other users have rights on the road. If in traffic then give them a swift kick as you go past!

Hi Ali, welcome.

Sorry to be the boring one, but if you are as terrified as you say then you should really think about having a few lessons to build up some confidence and get some tips from the experts. You'll enjoy it more when you do venture out.

Oh and like the others have said, have fun.
