Isle of Wight born and bred, love this went every year until we moved to Dorset, brings back memorys of the early 70s with mods on scooters and us rockers or greasers as we were known on our motor bikes great times, love the video
Planning to go to this year and I am getting the old man to come with it will be his first rally since the 90’s and we are both going on outfits. Can’t wait!
My husband and his mates ride done every year from Kent. Ferry is packed with riders from all over the country. Sure, if you have a real show scooter then can't blame them for bringing it in the back of a van. So, 'mostly' No.
My partner and I are buying a new 300GTS , got no intentions of jazzing it up and trying to make it look like an old classic , will be get any stick if we attend the rally next year ?
Absolutely not. ...All kinds of scooters there from what I could tell, mostly Vespas and Lambrettas, but old, customised and new models all mixing in together. I'm sure you will enjoy (Good weather helps of course!)
@@paulknights3701 i remember in the 60s this guy had died his green fishtail red….i thought that was cool..but today an old green one would be cool.you can still get desert boots today,but nobody bothers..how uncool is that..?
@@WinstonSmith22 ok so what about those American GI dress jackets in beige or green that were so popular,on a scooter? They were summer regulation mod wear..

Ahh the annual gathering of the comedy mod & Skin club while the scooters are mostly transported in the back of a van. Gotta love them 😂 great vid btw
Salad dodging, Stella, swearing - comedy mod, it's a truly British institution.

My Serveta has never been in the back of a van, you should go one year and experience the Rally first hand
@@hazy1418 I have experienced it and been riding scoots since 87 and it’s not my cup of tea 🫖
@@exsoulagentwhich is fine but why mock and make assumptions? U some kind of elitist/scooter snob?
Loved this video , the last rally I ever went on was IOW. 1985 . This bought the memories back, good times .

Damn right....
Are there enough mods coming through? Where are the young guys?
Answer: No! They're not interested in clothes any more.
@@HarryFlashman. naturiste scooteriste,interesting…
Mods? I'm really not seeing any on here? Comedy mods, yep, loads of em.
@@rogerramjet5302 i suppose the old real mods are all tatted up these days..so we wouldnt recognise them..fashions change..
Parabéns sou fã tenho uma ano 64lambretao
lots of old people riding scooters!
Comedy mods on blinged up Ebay tat laden autos pretending it's 1964 and they are twenty. 🤡
@@rogerramjet5302 yea sad innit!!
@@rogerramjet5302a little like the late 70's early 80's when just as you put it loads going round pretending it was the 60's
@andjo4413 100%. But in '79 we were all late teens like in the 60's not in our 60's trying to be teens.
You never see authentic American GI Parker’s these days..
I was thinking to myself at one point …Where are all the green Parkas? …but maybe it was too hot.

@@paulknights3701 maybe they’re all worn out and have gone to landfill…?
@@griswald7156 Plenty of new Clarks crepe soled desert boots on eBay?

I'm not your lad...don't vote for me what scooters I should ride...
