"Hurry!"

"Why shouldn't we ride on the sidewalk?"

Seen the Skoda Roomster actually?

Klaas Bruinsma doesn't live here anymore.

From here to downtown is another half hour,
at least, on foot at a quick walking pace.

Cash counter on the Van Baerle.

"He's on his racing bike."

"We can't drink coffee at Keyzer's anymore, can we?"

"Yrs, still a bit sleepy."

Early sun on the Goddess.

Max Carpedi built a sandcastle on Le Mans.

Italian manufacturer Piaggio, the maker of Vespa, is set to become the first company to release a hybrid drive scooter following an announcement that it is developing hybrid versions of its Vespa LX, Piaggio X8 and Vespa MP3 (the carving three-wheeler) models. The new hybrid system, which has a working title of HyS (Hybrid Scooter), can operate in full electric mode with a range of around 20 kilometres as well as hybrid mode - whenever the rider needs to accelerate more aggressively, the electric motor kicks in, providing about 85 per cent extra performance. Piaggio's HyS system is a parallel hybrid in which a combustion engine and an electric motor incorporated into the gearbox casing are mechanically and electronically linked and simultaneously supply power to the rear wheel. As already seen in Paris lately.
