Christmas day ride.

[klaviator]

It was nearly 70 degrees today and all I needed was an excuse to go for a ride.  I decided to get the ADV scooter tag so i rode about 10 miles to grab it.  The tag was Christmas Tree.  Well I got more than one.



In keeping with the Christmas theme I made the new tag a snowman.

I was watching a YouTube Christmas time walking tour in Paris the other day and the fellow walked by 2 Kymco like 150s, well actually they were probably 125's.....
That seems to be the customary size in Europe.
Nice to see Kymcos in Paris.

Yes, 125ccm you ride in most of EU with your "car B" license, (after some additional training and a juicy payment) for more, i.g. a 150ccm, a motorcycle license is required, with which you can ride any bigger/ stronger motorcycle.

Still a separate bike licence herein the UK Ruffus. They did away with the ability to ride up to 50cc on a car licence back in the 70’s I think.

@Neil, didn't know that about UK. Here for vehicles under 50 ccm you just need a training class (for a good fee of course), that's why a lot of people with their license taken for DWI drive/ ride this minicars and drinking happily further on.

Nope. Any drink/drug drive ban here applies across ALL classes of licence. It’s the bus, bicycle or a cab then.

Mind you, I did once know someone out in the sticks who rode his horse to the pub…
