Riding my GZ125 into University, London.

Here is a nice short vid of me riding the four miles to my uni in South East London.

The camera makes it sound a bit moped-esque but then again it is only a 125!

Thought you might want to see how we ride on the other side of the pond.

Happy voting to all you Americans out there!

:2tup: Great video, a little scary at first because you're on the wrong side of the road, but quick to get used to. Got me cracking up a couple times, flying by lines of cars at traffic lights is SOOO illegal in Maryland (but legal in other states, like California). Love those lights that show orange before green.
Very impressive how you pass those slow poke cars and buses, it's like youre riding a Guzzi Griso :rawk: The 125 is the ideal vehicle for a commute like yours.
It's just - I saw a bue sky with just a few feathery clouds - you're positive it was made in England? (jk :roll: )

PS happily voted today indeed, thanks! Told all the fanatics at the voting place that I would vote for their cause. Hey if they're lying, why can't I? Maybe some day there will be democracy in this country - like, the "one man, one vote" kind.

PS2 Ah, just saw that Obama won anyway, so no return to the prosperous, peaceful and social equality times of GW Bush.... Ah well...
