Never went out on the Scoot at the weekend but been travelling to work the last two days and to say its cold would be the understatement of all understatement.
This time of year can tease you rotten, its gives you a couple of nice days to lull you into a here comes summer mode and then bang your chipping chucks of ice of the disc breaks – those lorry drivers on channels 5 The Ice Road are wimps compared to us ;D
Had to set the blow heaters to full on the GTS this morning and the heated seat ensures your major part are kept at room temperature uhmmmmmmmmmmm ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

What are you saying Gary, doesn’t your traditional scooter have these? they come as standard on Auto’s ;D ;D ;D.
Mike I have been on the Modern Vespa website and they tell me that there is a setting on the GTS that swaps the wheels for same arrangement as in your picture.– saving it until the weather gets really cold. Its also allows me to drive underwater – might be useful for the IOM if the ferry sinks.

Weird today, the mist seemed to keep the temperature down even though the temp gauge said it was slightly warmer – still had my three coats on

Past another dedicated all weather driver on the Runcorn Bridge heading towards the Widnes side yesterday around 5pm ish.
He was riding a Black PX125 on a 04 plate, we did the usually greetings as we past – first time I have seen him any ideas who it was?
