Always fun to be the first!
Thought I’d make the first post in this group. I live in Louisville Kentucky, I’m 68 and retired last year. I have a 2009 Vespa GTS 250ie. I’m a member of The Bourbon City Vespa club a chapter of Vespa club of america. <div>
Also we are collectors of motorcycle. Between my wife and I we have about 10 motorcycles, as we’ve aged we have downsized from a high of 22. (The majority are hers😉)

I had ankle surgery last year which prevented me from riding any of the motorcycles. So I purchased a Vespa strictly for the utility of being able to ride it with a boot on. Instantly I fell in love, now it’s one of my favorite rides! Don’t know what took me so long.
The collection is heavily Moto Guzzi oriented. With a sprinkling of Triumphs, Hondas and vintage Yamahas 2&4 stroke mixed in there. I look forward to seeing this site grow!
So here’s the first message, and an effort to post a few photos. Seems to be working well so far.
