Sadly for me, I won't be able to make this ride now...have a great ride
Sorry Folks, will have to back out of this one, change of plan.
Next time ,,,
The usual rules apply when riding a non Vespa. Park slightly out of the pack :)
Any Geelong riders?
I'll leave from Godfreys, opposite Fords at 8
Should be enough time ?!?
My Vespa is still at the doctors Lisa, could possibly attend on my daughters Piaggio Fly ???
So sorry to miss out on this ride Lisa, especially that little bit of dirt road. It promises to be a visual delight. We'll be sulking in our little Japanese Ryokan in Tsumago thinking of you all. Have a great ride.
