Tracy and I ride vintage scooters: a Maicoletta and a Lambretta respectively, but not standard ones. Ours are unique, radically modified scooters fitted with motorcycle engines. Frankenstein’s monsters, built in a shed.\u003cbr\u003e‘We are riding to Istanbul with our friend Dean on another Lambretta.
