They were everywhere.

There is no way I would have ridden a scooter in that craziness.

Bill,
did you see any scooters zipping around this time?
Oh yes. There are still plenty of them. The law allows only one car per household, so the scooter is something of a necessity.

Wow I didn’t, know there was a museum of transportation in Bermuda missed it on my visit there. I rented a scooter and was fine until I got to the downtown section which I believe is Hamilton I pulled a “uiee” there and stayed away from that area. I rode all around the other parts of Bermuda and was fine.
Would of loved to see the museum but am enjoying the pictures thnx Bill.

I've got a '55 Vespa that could be available for the right price. Also have a '57 Allstate (made by Vespa) project scooter that could be had for a reasonable price.

Play the tuba while you are riding it and you will sound like a f1 car going by.
