Ive got quite a few since I have been working on them and am now a Vespa Mechanic. I do believe that scooter you have is to be a 1963-68 Vespa Sprint 125-150. One of the large frame models.<br/>Apes are fun to drive, a guy in toronto canada let me test one out.<br/>Scooters are not so popular where I am, so people look in my garage all the time!<br/>I could use some of that fine italian cooking!<br/>Ciao bella!<br/>Alex Nice vespa that is, got a collection my self.

Apes are fun to drive, a guy in toronto canada let me test one out.
Scooters are not so popular where I am, so people look in my garage all the time!
I could use some of that fine italian cooking!
Ciao bella!

I saw a vintage Vespa shop in London with 20-30 old vespas for sale. I had to do all I could to hold back:)<br/><br/>Homebody - it is a little scary here in the States as people aren't used to seeing them much.<br/><br/>Ciao Cinzia! thanks for stopping by and trying the bread. It's so hard to get a grip on exact quantities with some of these old family recipes, so it does have a trial and error factor. It should be moist but add some flour or water depending on if it's too dry or too moist. Hope that helps.<br/><br/>Sally, I love Ape!! I have been meaning to post on them. What a great vehicle. I read a post about a wine company in Maine that has one and they deliver their wine in it! great idea. Good luck getting yours.<br/><br/>Michelle, you have to! Fixing up the vintage ones is where it's at.<br/><br/>Robin, I have to stop going the last day. Everyone was packing up and we didn't get too far down the road. There's so much going on.<br/><br/>So jealous Maria. Can I take it for a spin:)<br/><br/>I'll do my best Rose! thanks Hi Maryann, me too!

Homebody – it is a little scary here in the States as people aren’t used to seeing them much.

Michelle, you have to! Fixing up the vintage ones is where it’s at.

Robin, I have to stop going the last day. Everyone was packing up and we didn’t get too far down the road. There’s so much going on.

So jealous Maria. Can I take it for a spin:)

I’ll do my best Rose! thanks

Love that song; reminds me of my trip to Italia l'anno scorsa. I hope you put more links to current Italian music on your blog!<br/>~Rose in Cali Vespas are nice, but THANK YOU for including some music!

I LOVE IT and its so much fun and the best thing to have in the city. You see them eveyrwhere around here these days, due to the gas prices and all. I can't wait until mine is done being serviced so I can break it out for the season. My husband bought me my Vespa 150 for my 1 year wedding anniversary!

Now, do you know what my dream is? An Ape. Yes, those strange tin huts on wheels that annoy everyone else on the roads because they go so slowly - usually driven by old men wearing hats. I'd like to paint it a bright colour, pop the dogs in the back and chundle off to do the spesa - bliss! I used to own a white Vespa when I lived in London. Now, do you know what my dream is? An Ape.

The gas prices in Mass are killing me. Made the pane, Nonni and others thought it was too salty, I used Kosher. Will try it again with less salt. What is the dough like before you knead, mine was a bit dry, should it be a moist batter. Would appriecate your input. My other half is a critical Abruzzo whose parents hail from Chieti Scalo. <br/>Grazie Hey Joe, Love the vespa. The gas prices in Mass are killing me.
