    Jonathan began riding Vespas in 1983. Since then a wide variety of stylish transportation has taken him in a big full circle all the way back to riding Vespas in the San Francisco Bay Area. This time it is a veteran software developer's means of getting out of the city, with the wife to the beach (in shortest time), to and from the office downtown (in shortest time).

First Sight

My Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Barinoff used to refer to our "scooters," as in, "Story Time, children! If you want to look at the pictures while I read you'll have to move your scooters forward." That's not the kind we're talking about when we say, "saw your scooter the other day!" We're talking about your very sophisticated method for getting from a reading at a cafĂ© dowtown to look at pictures in a museum uptown. We see your Vespas everywhere. The subtle stenciling on the side of this ET4 stood out when the sun hit it in San Francisco's SOMA district yesterday.Picture001_28jun05  Who's the owner?

I know that bike. When I was working at VespaSF earlier this year, we sold that custom scoot with 2 others to the estate of a well-known philathropic family. I'm bound not to drop the name, but they are known in the museum world
