is it a coincidence perhaps that most lamby owners are bald as opposed to vespa riders ..?
perhaps its down to the stress and expence of trying to maintain a lamby lol

HAha, not all of us.
It'll be in a zimmer frame from cold garage floors b4 my hair falls out 4 me.
It'd be cheaper on replacing greasy lids, haircuts and zimmer frames if it was the other way arround!
Time to resurect the Vespa.
Nice pic and story BTW: all the best to the Irish C2C crew: the weather is in your favour!

Here Sean, I am predominantly a lammy rider! I'm actually 12 years younger than those bald old men! Youve a fair crop on your head yourself

I was behind your Vespa briefly coming in to Sedbergh. I have to say the crack of the exhaust note sounded really meaty
What engine and exhaust is it?

We had a great time at the coast to coast Sean scooters all performed brilliantly in fact we did HardKnott and two other passes with Knowledge & Co
Also booked on the 7.30pm boat home up in Scotland but flew up to road and jumped on the 3pm sailing
I'm well chuffed with my Eibar S2 and we all will be recommending Scooterotica to the rest of the Ulster Lambretta Club.

It was good to meet you lads. You were very patient with me, Nic and Dave "Steeleyscoot" Steel from Derby & District.
None of us broke any records (we were probaly last over the Hardknott due to my map reading error), but it was still a memorable day of riding in glorious weather.
Ride safe Banshees.

Sean, C2C was brilliant, unfortunately Mark's measly 12 horses kept us back in the 'race' !!
T5 is brilliant and yes the note from the pipe is great too - I actually dropped it back to the owner tonight and my son came with me - his 136cc self tuned smallie sat beside me the whole way so it will be good to get Dan to dyno it maybe later in the year!
Stork, it's a 172 reed valve T5 with a 30mmm Delly but the pipe on it is the cherry!!!
