I plan to read every entry.<BR/><BR/>As for this entry:<BR/>It does seem that I get more smiles and thumbs up from kids, who have not yet been taught to ask "Why not a motorcycle?" or the fear of interacting with a stranger with a simple positive hand gesture. Of course, even when they do give me a thumbs-up, they can't see me smile for my full-face helmet. Perhaps the smile wrinkles around my eyes convey my expression?<BR/><BR/>Yours,<BR/>Bonkers<BR/>Vespa GTS, blk with reflective white lightning bolts [bzow!!]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22365987.post-51755452925050023482007-12-01T11:00:00.000-07:002007-12-01T11:00:00.000-07:00A friend sent me your blog address and said she th...A friend sent me your blog address and said she thought I'd like it. I do! I'm not a scooterist but enjoy reading about two wheel traveling. I'm a female solo long distance motorcyclist who has traveled around Lake MI and Lake Superior. I love your pics!

It has been so long since I have ridden one for any length of time but I don't recall the magic smile. Riding a Vespa has a way of producing smiles for me even after many miles. It is just a pure, happy feeling. I continue to enjoy your thoughtful posts and pictures.<BR/><BR/>Steve Williams<BR/><A HREF="http://vespalx150.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Scooter in the Sticks</A>Steve Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540977884513559091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22365987.post-65221381732273083102007-11-21T20:49:00.000-07:002007-11-21T20:49:00.000-07:00Happy Thanksgiving!

I've read every entry. Love your writing and your spirit of adventure. Your photography is also superb. I ordered a calendar and bought your cook book at Amazon. When are you publishing your book?

Wandering over here, I read from the beginning. I like your writing, your adventure, and you. Too many people forget that life is a road and an adventure, to be lived: not a waystation for marking time. <BR/><BR/>but then ... growing up 50 odd years ago... at 19 I was the first female in my town of 200,000 to have a motorcycle.
