If you’ve ever wanted to tour Tuscany on a vintage Vespa, now is your chance – only you’ll have to read a book.
On June 20, Ben Birdsall’s book, “La mia Toscana in Vespa”, will be presented at the Castello dei Vicari.
It includes the stories of 1,200 kilometres spent on a Vespa 50, 1979, with everything you could want and more: inspirational rolling hills, typical Tuscan cuisine, and beautiful piazzas.
Written by an Irishman living in Tuscany for many years, each day starts with some poetry of the itinerary for that day, after which time is marked only by the sun and what you want to see.
