BEST AND WORST OF SCOOTERING SCENE....The best is the friends you have with a life you don’t have to be anyone to enjoy. The worst is the ones that think you have to be somebody with their heads stuck so far up their own arses they can’t see the real world for their own shit.

CAMPING OR CHALET......Chalet. Too many creature comforts. Camping if good weather. (What a wimp I know but honest)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION....

Thanks for the experience. I wouldn’t have had it any other way. Here’s to the next 30 years
