Hello from a rider with his first scooter...

[REW]

That is a very interesting account of your perhaps "Damascene moment" during your French trip OSP and of course a successful trip to Scotland to confirm it, thanks!

I am away from home at the moment in Brora, Scotland, on the A9 which is of course the route of the NC500. Many are passing my holiday rental each day and almost all are big bikes: Harleys and GS BMWs particularly. But I am surprised to say, no small stuff and no scooters at all! And yet, I can't wait to come back on two wheels on my Forza. So I know exactly what you mean and I suspect many on this forum do too.
