So I've got my heart set on a new toy: the Gilera Fuoco 500.  A 500cc 3-wheeled scooter.  Check this shit out:

Wow, that is something differrent!

Looks pretty cool, but Hef is right, you can't defeat the sweetness of many two wheeled bikes out there.

I'm a bikes man, scooters don't do it for me... Though that one at least makes me consider it  :-)

Shut up.

In a related vein, I found this review which said:

Being over 40 I felt a little worried that it might be classed as a "mid-life crisis scooter"

[...]

And it gets a middle aged man noticed.

"Cool bike mate," one teenaged daredevil on the kind of banged up L-plate Gilera Runner you see doing wheelies said to me when we stopped together at the lights outside the Regents Park Mosque. I felt old and slightly smug at the same time - maybe it is a mid-life crisis scooter?

Dammit!  Fuck!

Who'da thunk you could get AIR on the thing?  How exciting is that?
