Fit & tune – BGM 177 kit: part 3 | Workshop
Venlo or bust for Boris build of a true touring-spec Vespa PX? It was too good to be true. As is usually the case where scooters are involved, things didn’t quite go to plan for Boris before leaving for Venlo. If you want to be reminded of (or missed) the first two parts of his BGM […]
Peter Green’s Rod model Vespa | VINTAGE
Despite current trends you can’t manufacture ‘real’ patina. You can’t just make rust appear and look authentic just because you want it there and you certainly can’t recreate 64 years worth of natural character out of a tin. Original is original, some love it, some hate it but when original looks like Peter […]

Barrie Smith of Bolton Spartans Scooter Club was one of the group who set off to do it. Unfortunately USA customs refused to let the guys […]
Exmouth BSRA national scooter rally | RALLERY
Exmouth still conjures up happy memories for me. Red hot summer days as an excited seventeen year-old scooterboy doing his first full season of rallies on a brand new shiny red Vespa T5. The Deer Leap pub thronged with thirsty scooterists. Friendships for life being forged in far-away towns. Under-aged drinking was the norm […]
