  • A Vespa trip from Zion, Pennsylvania to Cleveland, Ohio to see my nephew graduate from high school. I was also able to visit my dad’s gravesite for the first time since his passing, as the route went right by his cemetery.

    Your trips are always inspiring. After watching I want to go for a ride. If it wasn't dark and I wasn't so tired I would be on the road now.
    I'm glad you were able to listen to a ball game with your dad. I hope to make a similar ride to Ohio to visit my dad's resting place. I'll have to bring a couple pony bottles of Rolling Rock...

      Thanks, Steve. For me, it’s tough to beat a full day dedicated to exploration on the Vespa. Sharing those experiences with likeminded friends is frosting on the cake.
      Sharing some Rolling Rock with your dad sounds perfect and I’ll want to hear all about it!

      Thanks, Eric! Sharing them with friends who also ride and understand makes it that much better.

    Over 600 miles in two days. That's a decent trip on any two wheeled conveyance. Well done.

      Thanks, Jimmy. I’ve found the GTS to be remarkably comfortable to ride for significant amounts of time. The only part of these long rides that I don’t particularly enjoy is time spent on the freeway.

    Kinda neat that 322 runs right from near you all the way to Cleveland.

      TBH, I didn’t know that 322 did that until taking this trip!

    Awesome ride! I have been wanting to get out to Lake Erie on one of my bikes, but Cleveland is an impressive trip. You probably had to deal with more fast moving traffic than I like to deal with. I have been to lake Ontario on my Helix. I love see people taking long trips on their scooters. It proves you don’t need a liter engine to do some touring. Good job!

      I enjoyed the ride out to Cleveland and was pleasantly surprised that it was so easy to navigate and rural most of the way. I took Route 322 for most of the trip and it kept me off the interstate, which is my preference. Your Ontario trip on the Helix sounds amazing. I do love these longer trips where you can go at your own pace and ride all day. There’s nothing much better!
