Latte sipping techno weenies

Are Apple Mac owners Latte sipping techno weenies? If so, what about Latte sipping, Vespa-riding Mac owners?
What kind of image are Mac owners portraying, and what about coffee snobs? and what about Vespa riders?
Mac owners like good coffee. Vespa riders like good coffee. Not all Mac owners and coffee drinkers ride Vespa’s. Not all Vespa [...]

By the sea shore

She sells sea shells by the sea shore. The shells she sells are surely seashells. So if she sells shells on the seashore, I’m sure she sells seashore shells.
It’s easy to forget some of the good things in life. Today, riding along the coast, as I always do on my way to work. I took [...]

No Freedom for Cagers

The cagers drive in their cages in a frenzy to earn their wages,
boxed in, they cannot see, the guy riding freedom, that guy is me,
I ride my freedom every day, 2-stroke, thin-bloke, dressed in black, hunched back,
fueled by caffeine navigating my steel machine, when I ride I keep it clean,
you don’t see me, you do [...]

big ride

Yesterday I went on a fair size ride on the PX200, about 200km round trip, it was nice, but it made me realise a couple of things. the PX200 is not a comfortable scooter to do any kind of long distance touring on, my open face helmet sucks for wind noise and bug splatter.
It was [...]

I had to have one. 200cc, 2-stroke, 4-speed manual shift, stunning and elegant 30 year old design. mmm
I put down a deposit for my Black Vespa PX200 yesterday after [...]

The Wasp

I took the van up to the scooter shop on Saturday to pick up my new Vespa LX50. I could have ridden it home but it would have taken a while! Van was easier.
I’ve already named it… “The Wasp”. I took it for a cruise with some other scooter owners on Sunday and clocked up [...]

Vespa LX50

Well last night Melissa and I drove up to Ace Scooters in Joondalup to test ride and check out some scooters. A couple of hours later I’d signed to purchase a new, black, Vespa LX50. What a lovely ride! I also picked up a new helmet, cable lock and jacket!
I should be taking delivery this [...]

Empty Garage

Whats wrong with this picture? I’ll tell you. There’s a car missing. I just waved goodbye to our N15 Pulsar SSS which was sold to a young bloke who worked a year at bunnings (hardware store) to buy his first car. I’m glad it’s going to someone thats worked hard for his first car! It [...]
