I'm also considering a Vespa -- at 100 mpg, they start looking attractive real quick. Also I could park it in my backyard, off the street.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
The thing about vespas, at least old ones, is they pollute awful. Now an electric scooter would be awesome. I could see plug in station cropping up everywhere.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
To me Vespas look like things to get knocked off of. At least on a motorbike I might be able to outrun the things that would upend me.

I cringe every time I see someone on one without a helmet, and here that seems the majority. My dad's been hit on his bicycle more times than I now know and at least twice, the helmet saved him from becoming an organ donor.
Actually, I see organ donors every time I see unhelmeted non-car cycles.

Oh & thanks for the translation!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
To me Vespas look like something to steal. Couldn't you just pick one up and throw it in a pickup truck or something?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I saw a scooter the other day with a bumper sticker that said "I t heart Tel-Aviv," except it had an Adidas logo instead of the heart.
