Just got back from holiday in Menorca, they should rename it Kymcoland. Everwhere you looked all you saw were Agility 50's & 125's, People 125's and even a few Downtowns etc. Every scoot hire shop was full of Agility 125's and everyone rode scoots,they must be close to 1:1 ratio with cars on the road,at least. There were a few other brands,Yamaha, Honda, Peugeot,Vespa etc,but by far the majority were Kymco's. I would say 3 or 4 out of 5 scoots i saw was a Kymco!
Weather was great so everyone was riding in shorts, t-shirts and open helmets (Flip-Flops too
) but due to the lack of real traffic it seemed fine,the scoots ruled the road in town at least. I saw one of the maids from our resort pull up one morning on a modded and seriously cool ZX, she was at least 45-50 yr old and "black mama" type lady, it totally threw me when i saw her get off it and take off her helmet
Even the cps had cool rides,this was a Honda but still cool
Was dying to hire a scoot and go for a ride, but like a complete asshole i forgot to take my license over with me so couldnt hire one out,i just had to drool and wimper as they all passed me by :'( Got serious withdrawl symptoms from not riding for the week, i missed my little Kymco.
I need to move asap to warmer climes, i function far better in the sun
Now need to get my plans in order. I need to move in around 10-15 years time so time to start getting my affairs/plans in order. Somewhere in the Med or the Canary Islands will be just fine, i love island life, it just seems so much more laidback than the mainland. We even had a visit from Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones who cruised into our cove one morning in their little dingy,no-one even batted an eyelid, we lifted our sun-glasse, had a look then we went back to relaxing
i had a look for JOnes in a bikini but i guess she was busy servicing Mike,nice looking boat tho
Anyone hiring in the Canaries just let me know, i can start today
