December Morning Ride on my Vespa GTS

A foggy and damp Sunday morning ride through Centre Hall, Potters Mills, and Penns Valley, Pennsylvania.

Beautiful landscapes and music. The Vespa is great also. Cheers from Greece.

[@heckadude]

Many thanks! I’d love to explore Greece on two wheels one day!

Nice and slow so we can see what you see. Thank you for the calm ride.

[@heckadude]

I’m glad you enjoyed it. Those foggy mornings seem to combine peace and mystery. Thanks for following along!

Looks like a Steve King movie! Thanks😮

[@heckadude]

Ooh, you’re right. There is definitely a hint of a creepy vibe that I hadn’t thought of. Perhaps I’ll have to run with that idea in a future video!

[@ScooterintheSticks]

I was on the same roads this morning on my W650. The fog and mist made it hard to see out of the visor. But it sure makes for some pretty videos. The GTS is the best machine for that kind of weather. Everything else I have is a challenge. In cold weather You made a beautiful video!❤

[@heckadude]

Thanks, Steve! Yes indeed, I was battling the fog and mist all morning. I had my visor up for much of the trip just so I could see. I do love the beautiful and eerie quality that the fog gives photos and video. Who knows, maybe one of these days we will cross paths on one of these mountain roads!

Peaceful, relaxing, atmospheric ride out, with few other vehicles around. Great! 37degrees C (98f) here yesterday, wouldn't mind some of your cooler weather...

[@heckadude]

Thanks, Free Ranger. Ooh, 98°F sounds rough, but give me one more month and I’ll be willing to trade places…ha ha.

Nice ride buddy, Foggy daze are the best... great vid

[@heckadude]

Thank you! I agree. The fog gives everything an otherworldly vibe.

[@nomad90125]

Man i remember those day's like yesterday, Back in 1973 on a lambretta 150 LI. Still riding a scooter today, but i live in a tropical country.😎

[@heckadude]

Outstanding. And on a vintage Lambretta no less! I’d love to switch places sometime and get a taste of that tropical riding experience.

[@DhaniMurtopo]

A mystic foggy morning..

[@heckadude]

The fog does give riding that otherworldly mystical feeling. I’m usually not up early enough to enjoy it!

[@taebert]

Very nice video. I am guessing that this was Saturday morning. It was a very mild day. I rode just shy of 200 miles myself. I was going to head west toward State College but then decided to head to the Lehigh Valley. Thank you again for the opportunity to live vicariously through your travels.

[@heckadude]

Thanks for riding along, Tim. This video was shot on Sunday morning (yesterday). I’m glad to hear you got a good ride in. 200 miles is quite a bit, especially for this time of year. The Lehigh Valley sounds like a fine riding destination!

[@harisnaikmotor]

Wow, so beautiful 👍

[@heckadude]

Thank you!

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

The fog was terrible today, Sunday. Another fun ride, and good to see you riding in December, Andy.

[@heckadude]

Thanks, Eric! Pretty amazing that you were socked in with fog yesterday morning, too. Exploring always lifts my spirits, much needed on these short days without much sunshine. I’m looking forward to watching Part 2 of your Australia adventure!

[@Sapinvert-eh9xx]

@@heckadude do you think that a 50CC can drive every day 90 km (for the work)?

[@heckadude]

@@Sapinvert-eh9xx 90 km would probably take a couple hours on a 50 cc scooter. I guess it depends on whether you have that kind of time.

[@krasky]

Beautiful! What GTS is it? 300 cm?

[@heckadude]

Thank you, Krasky. Yes, it’s a GTS 300.

[@sebastianmadera2729]

Hi!!!! Can I drive my Vespa GTS 300 with My regular driver license ?

[@heckadude]

If your in the state of Pennsylvania, you’ll need a motorcycle license for anything 50 CCs and above. The good news is that the driving test is easy peasy!

Trump please hurry
