Valborundan 2014 - scooterish...

Me with mates Anders and Ola, all on Vespa GS 160.


The Valborundan 2014 was held on the 29th of May, near the town of Gävle, 170 km's north of Stockholm. 150 participants on motorcycles and scooters. About 20 of them were scooters, mostly Vespas but only one Lambretta, a 150 LD, one Peugeot S55 and a couple of Zündapp Bellas, one with sidecar.
I wasn't participating, just ridning along and taking pictures in the nice weather. I was on my Vespa GS 160 from 1963 and met friends Anders Lagerquist, also on a series 1, and Ola Gustafsson on a series 2. Fellow scooterist Mikael Dunker took the picture of us. Anders is a legend, he was in several international competitions during the 60's. Among them "Tre Mare" in Italy. Yes, a nice rally!
