I'm not sure if this magazine cover photo was staged for the magazine, or is just a reprint of an old Piaggio advertisement. My guess is the latter. Piaggio created tons of ads which somehow managed to place scooters on the beach! I wonder why? Of course here, we have scantily-clad models on the scooter, next to a train. Ummm hunh? The train may signify something, I don't know... perhaps Mr. Frued could postulate a reason... The simple response can be found in this post.
