    As the title says..... I'm off on a road trip on Friday morning. I'm riding from Durham down to Tenby, South Wales. It's about 340 miles one way (returning to Durham on Sunday)......... However, there's a catch! I won't be on my Triumph, I'll be riding my Vespa as I'm attending the 2nd National Scooter Rally of 2018.

    I'm looking forward to the rally, hopefully a good ride down (and back again of course!)

    Thanks for replies / best wishes, guys.
    The scoot is a Vespa GTS 300, so quite a good mile muncher. The wife likes it as its more comfortable for her than being on the back of my Lambretta.

    ........ oh, and we're camping too, so definitely hope that the weather is kind to us.
