Every year in June, the SIP Joyride takes place - a day trip by scooter in a larger group that has already become a tradition for many. For most participants, the joyride starts at home with the journey to the SIP Scootershop in Landsberg. In many places, groups organise themselves via Facebook, for example, and arrive in Landsberg together as a group. Gradually, more and more participants arrive from all directions, drink a coffee in the Siperia, chat about petrol and admire the sparkling Vespas and Lambrettas.
The oldest Vespa to take part so far was from 1948, the oldest participant was 88 years old, one scooter rider came from Australia and one from Hong Kong! And in their own words, visiting Landsberg and taking part in the Vespa Tour was a bigger highlight for them than Neuschwanstein and the Bundestag in Berlin. Scooter riders travelled from as far as the Moselle, Stuttgart, Vorarlberg and Salzburg to take part in this family event in Landsberg.
The tour takes us along small roads from the SIP Scootershop in Landsberg through the beautiful old town of Landsberg, through picturesque little villages between Lech and Ammersee, one of the most beautiful landscapes in Germany. At Diessen am Ammersee there is a stopover to chat, have a drink and enjoy the view of the lake. After an hour's break, the group continues around southern Ammersee to Kloster Andechs and then via Pilsensee and Wörthsee to Schondorf to the Seepost - the end point of the tour, which is around 80 kilometres long.
The SIP Joyride for Vespa & Lambretta friends is also suitable for 50cc scooters! You can find many more SIP Open Day videos on our YouTube channel! The SIP Joyride is always available as an event on our Facebook page, where you can find the latest information - it's best to like it directly and click on "interested" or "participate" for the SIP Joyride event.
CURRENTLY: unfortunately, joyrides in the form we have organised in the past are currently not possible for administrative reasons. We are very sorry about this. Maybe there will be a possibility again in the future, we will keep you informed via our Newsletter, which you can subscribe to here here.
