It’s not funny how a large chunk of beautiful things in the world are Italian, The cars and bikes they make, The suits they tailor, their cuisine, and those Italian women a man loves by his side, whoever has a limousine.
One such iconic Italian brand is the Vespa (The name means wasp in italian). Marlon Brando had one, Dean Martin had one too. You can buy one in India and ride it around as girls lower their sunglasses to give you another look, keep it in your living room as piece of art, or ride it to Mantua, Italy, where they hosted the 2014 Vespa World Days.
More than 10,000 people from 32 nations turned up to share their love and enthusiasm for this amazingly simple yet complicatedly alluring piece of machinery. Even hairy chested Aprilia World Superbike riders Marco Melandri and Sylvain Guintoli couldn’t resist the allure of these colourful machines. Here are some pictures from the event. Could give you some ideas to revive that LML-Vespa, dad used to ride, now eating dust in the basement.
