It's less mundane today because you don't see many of these where I live.
Mike brought one of his scooters (1979 P200 Vespa) to work and asked me to snap some pictures of it.

Last year at this time I thought I saw a rubber snake...

With gas prices the way they are here, we may start seeing more of these!
