A nostalgic overview of the scooter. Although commonly assumed to have been invented in the 1950s, the machine actually dates back to 1907, when Italian manufacturers created the Vespa and Lambretta. Also included is footage and commentary from the 1959 Scottish Rally and the Six Day Trial.

Scooter fans from all walks of life embraced the scooter phenomenon, and this entertaining progam takes a nostalgic look at the scrambling, rallies, competitions culture and games enjoyed by many scooter enthusiasts in the 1950s.

Enjoy the 1959 Scottish Rally as over 60 two-strokes buzz along the Highland roads, next travel to Woburn Abbey to a British Lambretta Rally. Scooter scrambling was also a popular pastime and highlights shown here capture all the action.There's also a Brands Hatch competition and, in the Isle of Man, the annual Motor Scooter Rally saw entrants and their scooters compete around the famous TT circuit. 

Scooter sport was so widespread that that even the 1959 Scottish Six Day Trial (SSDT) - one of motorcycling's toughest competitions - had a class for them. The wonderful footage and 1950s commentary combine to give you a rare look at this popular two-wheeled culture - including all the fun, laughter and joy of owning and riding a scooter.

"An excellent video and a real eye opener for those who still want to dismiss the scooter as something of an oddity. Good value and excellent viewing." Met On Wheels
