It’s an article that may be worth the read, even though it’s sickeningly pretentious in parts (it almost made me hurl my grande non-fat no foam sugar-free hazelnut latte). I pasted a couple of the more tollerable paragraphs below.

‘Girls look really hot on a new Vespa,’ noted Byers, ‘though I think Lisa should get rid of her side mirrors. They’re not cool.’ Then he climbed onto his vintage scooter and roared off into the night.”
