This guy has got some big cohones, touring Europe on a 50cc scooter! and him a registered disabled as well. Funny when he thought that 35 was really hot and was amazed when it got to 40. But I admire his stamina and determination, even though I think he's NUTS!
Cheers,
Paul

I've had one or two trips to Melbourne from Adelaide on one of my 250's but I wouldn't attempt it on anything less, Even over there. One of the larger scooters might have been better.
