Vespa Alp Days Archives - Scooter Center Scooterswhoops blog

Platónika test drives after more than 7,000 km is more than completed, so here we go!

together with Scooter Center to Zell am See from 10th to 12th September 2021

Enough of mile munching going and leaving work from day to day. It's about time for those epic trips, meeting other Vespisti and collecting memories for a lifetime. The Vespa Alp Das will be the perfect start for new adventures!
In my personal ranking of events, VAD has a special place:

It was the second biggest event that I took part in. The biggest were the Vespa World Days in Celle, both in 2017. At the VAD I celebrated together with 1.000 Vespistas from 20 different nations.
It was the first meeting after I set foot on European soil.
It was the first time to see so many Vespas together, including the 60 oldest Vespas on the continent at the Faro Basso race.
It was also the longest event I have participated in, 8 days of non-stop fun.
The oldest Vespa I've ever ridden, the beautiful Vespa Super Sport 180 from Franz, which he kindly lent me.
The most beautiful landscapes that my eyes have seen.
In addition, it was the beginning of beautiful friendships, of which I have been able to continue reinforcing.

Back to the future

Now the reasons are others, I'm going to work there! As part of Scooter Center, which is the official sponsor of the event. The plan -for certain- is riding Platónika there. I'm getting ready to show you first-hand all this adventure, by now here are some good memories from 2017:

Photos and videos Vespa Alp Days 2020 Reloaded

One thing in advance: we are already looking forward to next year's Vespa Alp Days 2021 in Zell am See(June 01-08, 2021) and are confident that we will be able to celebrate “normal” Alp Days with you again. Registration and information you will find here soon: https://www.the-alp-days.at/

Everything is different this year. Corona makes it ~~possible~~. The date in June was canceled, like many other events. Most of the scooter meetings fell victim to the epidemic. But then the Vespa Alp Days, under these difficult conditions, fortunately took place in the Alp Days Reloaded Edition.

We from the Scooter Center have been following this super Vespa meeting in Zell am See since the World Vespa Days 2009, when we were already the main sponsor and represented with a large stand and team. This huge international Vespa meeting was the birth of the following AlpDays event, which should take place for the 11th time this year. the Scooter Center is again the main sponsor and once again we were on site, although in this special situation with a mini team. What the two of us were able to experience in this short time was simply amazing: We started at 9:00 am in the morning with the Grossglockner Mountain Prize, I have never seen so many Vespa Rally 180/200 in one place before. Have a look here:

Video Zell am See 2020

The result is 2 videos.
Tip: for the Grossglockner exit full movie
you should take 30 minutes. It's worth it! The course of the road in connection with the breathtaking mountain scenery at 2,500 meters above sea level make the scenery and the video simply epic.

I don't know how Nicole and Franz always do it with the weather, but see for yourself!
