Left at Dublin - A Classic Electric Scooter Tour of Ireland

To test the reliability of our electric conversion kits for classic Vespa and Lambretta scooters, we thought what better way than a grand tour of Ireland on a pair of converted scooters!

As far back as the late 1940s, both Innocenti, Piaggio and many other scooter manufactures competed to prove the reliability of their scooters, such as the famous 6 day race.

The tour will see us travel the length and breadth of Ireland using only battery powered vintage scooters. Starting at Dublin, then turning left and traveling south to Cork, over to Killarney, before riding all the way up the west coast to Portrush and back down to Dublin.

I will be riding a fully electric powered converted 1961 Lambretta Li S2 and will be joined by my friend John, on a converted electric battery powered 1966 Vespa Sprint.

Along the way we will be posting pictures and writeups about our journey so please don't forget to follow us on our social media pages.

Not only is this a great way to test our scooter conversion kits but It's also for a worthy cause; Macmillan Cancer Support. To donate please click on the link below.
