Vespa Ice Racing and the Power of Studded Tires
With a lot of discussion lately focused on snow and riding I took a look around YouTube and found a short film that explores some of the possibilities of riding on snow and ice. The first look at a winter equipped Vespa takes place at 2:09. Take a look at some of the scooters racing around the track in Germany -- Those aggressive studs make it possible to really lean into a turn!
The video was produced by the S.I.P. Scooter Shop in Germany.

Now that looks like a fun way to spend a cold winter's day.
Canajun: Definitely looks as if a committed subculture has grown up around ice racing. It's a lot easier to get all the necessary stuff in Germany than it is here.
