renting vespas in tuscany
We will be in Tuscany for 4 days and would like to rent vespas. We would like to drive around on back roads/small towns. We are staying outside of San Gimigano. Any info.

Not in Italy, but we rented them in Alaska last summer. Fabulous---and probably a lot more fun in Italy

A fun idea if you've ridden them before and are confident in traffic. Not so great an idea if you have no experience or are not confident riders (back roads can be very narrow and twisting and other drivers will assume you're locals and not give you any special leeway.)
