There is lots going on this weekend what with the rally and all. Here is a great NY Times article on the NYC scooter scene & Rally, and just scooters in general.
Paolo Timoni, president and chief executive of Piaggio USA, which manufactures Vespas, said the company sold more than 1,000 Vespas in New York City last year, an increase of 128 percent from 2003.
This weekend, scores of scooter owners from across the country are expected to join New York riders for the third annual Gotham Rally, an event in which “scootophiles” show off their bikes, socialize and drink as they roll through the city and surrounding area in a buzzing swarm.
