Mile High Mayhem? thought someone had organised an orgy on a plane there for a minute :D
Sounds real good with all the vintage Italian stuff there, grab some nice pics of the old stuff :)
If lived near i would go but im too far away unfortunately.

I personally am going to avoid the overly hipster "hate everything but steel bodied scooter crowd". They are quite militant here in Denver. The clubs I am with are more about the rides and not about the brand of scooter you ride. It will be fun for sure, even with the haters.

I know exactly what and who you mean there, i hate pompous assholes no matter what they ride or drive. I have to admit i have one of those metal bodied Vespa's as well as my "plastic" Kymco Agility but noticed a very large majority of Italian scooter owners are hard-headed, stuck up their own ass, geeky nerds.
I joined a vespa forum ages ago when i 1st got mine, introduced myself and posted a few pics of my scoot to try get to know some folk and got back a LOT of negative replies and put-downs for various plans & things i had customed on mine. Comments like "That centre stand ought to have black rubber boots on the end" & "You know the way you riveted on the foot runners are not how it left the factory, thats wrong" soon made me realise i was dealing with hardcore idiots :D
I never went back after a week of comments and them picking up ANY small deviation from stock. The final straw came when i had a guy with a chopped down 1970's one tell me i was wrong to do some of the mods i did on mine, even tho he had completely destroyed his by cutting half of it off ??? Glad im not part of that scene.
Maybe you can sneak a few snaps from a distance if theres a few nice ones, dont give them the satisfaction of looking too close tho :)
