    Well somehow this week I have gained a 50cc Vespa. It doesn't owe me any money it was thrown in with the sale of my Audi. I've already been sliding it round the dirt banks by my house and it was a hoot been for a few slow rides round and the missus has fallen in love with it.

    So do I keep it for shits and giggles or get it on the bay?

    Its a lot more fun than I thought it would be, I think riding it on the road would wind me right up though its just too slow. Off road is great fun though, might go greenlaning on it on Saturday for a laugh

    Exactly 40mph everywhere! I had it scrubbing the stand on a roundabout that was a bit hairy
