So, popped to Avignon on the Lambretta. 1600 miles, several serious incidents but an absolute scream.

She doesn't look quite as good at present. Needs some serious tlc.

Going here was an experience.

Beautiful!

That's a lot of miles to put on a Lammy in one go. What failures did you encounter (I'd imagine a few at least ;) )

Failures? Not many. Back wheel fell off, carb manifold rubber split, gear cable snapped, large crack in exhaust u-bend, lost a circlip from gear linkage, had to replace the rear tyre. Nothing a bit of blood, sweat and cable ties wouldn't fix.

It's all part of the fun of owning a classic vehicle.

So thats a reliable trip for an Italian Scoot, I guess! Do you do daily commutes on it too?

Daily commutes? Of course. Once a month if the weather is fine and there's a gentle southerly breeze. Only in July. On a Friday.
