I stayed at an 1882 Farmhouse 12 miles outside of Hermann, Missouri. I rode both days into the village of Hermann for the Midwest Classic Scooter Rally put on by 30 Days Scooter Gang out of St. Louis Missouri. Everyone that knows me knows i’m not “rally guy.” The idea of riding my bike around big cities is not enticing or pleasant. However, the beautiful setting of rolling hills and the history of this old German settlement is right up my alley. The Midwest Classic Scooter Rally is a vintage only rally and i have become a fan of it. . . as that’s what i do.
The video captures my 12 mile ride into the village of Hermann. I’m riding a stock Vespa GS150 built in the Augsburg factory, Germany. A very unique bike for the USA with only a handful known to be here. The engine is stock and built by myself. The bike had been taken apart and painted, and never put back together. I bought if off my good friend Rory who respected me enough that i would do justice with the project. Thank you Rory!
