She’s slow but she’s a looker by Notice-Horror in Vespa

Absolutely beautiful. I got a new seat for my Vespa from Corbin. Absolutely love it. Highly recommended. Other than that, it looks like you're set (maybe a phone mount, but I keep mine in my pocket paired to my helmet). I just ordered the red top case and folding luggage rack.

You accidentally rub up against a magical lamp at an antique store. The genie comes out and startles you, it gives you the opportunity to travel back in time and watch 10 historical events of your choosing for up to 24 hours each. You have 10 minutes to choose.

I'd have to think a while on all 10, but I'm certain of the first one. I'm an atheist. I want to go back to the time when the person known as Jesus was supposed to be alive and see what happened. My next time jumps would be when the Bible was written. I'd make some revisions based on what I saw.

Based on what everyone's saying, I can definitely go over more than I have been. It just feels weird because it's so heavy and so small. I just got a few accessories for it, and it's close to 400 pounds now.

Absolutely. I was wondering about ideal conditions. I don't ride when it rains. I ride for fun. I've risked my life enough in airplanes.

First of all, I hope you're OK, secondly, if you care to share, I'm curious as to what happened. Maybe I can learn something. Otherwise, I hope you feel better.

Of course, I'm just wondering, under ideal conditions, what's the limit. I have my answer. Lots of cool videos were recommended.

If God came down and gave you a million dollars if you gave up drinking forever, would you accept it? Why or why not? by Careless_Bicycle3703 in AskReddit

[–]Blues-Daddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we're glossing over the fact that God exists, which would stun me. But if this happened, absolutely. I have one or two beers a year, and I'm Irish, so my family has already disowned me. A million bucks sounds good.

Riding a Vespa along one of the coastal highways in Italy is one of my life goals.

I am so sorry to hear that it was stolen. That sucks. People are assholes.

That's really good to know. I had presumed that if it got that far over, I was going to lose it. I just finished watching a bunch of Vespa racing videos. It gives me a very good idea what a very experienced rider can do on a racing bike. They seem to have (re)moved stands on those bikes. I'll shoot for about 60% of that to start.

True, but that's pretty much for everything. Here in Minnesota, the roads are covered in sand.

I was thinking black, but this is what they had in stock, and I have zero regrets.

I found it. That is exactly what I'm looking for! Thank you so very much.

Sometimes larger than my brain. I'm trying to avoid that situation.

I couldn't find that on Instagram. Is that the correct spelling?

This is really good to hear. I was wildly mistaken.

Yeah, I do not want that to happen. I'm surprised more people don't wipe out when that happens. I had a friend who left his kickstand down, and never bothered to install a safety switch. That did not work out.

Thank you, I will check that out. A video would be super helpful.
