INTEVIEW WITH A twenty first CENTURY MOD: A contemporary Twist
at the Iteration Hole

RAYNOR: So, Mod Matt, do you concentrate on your self a Mod?
MOD MATT: Nicely, sure, however inside the context of the days we are living in, I would say I am greater of a "trad mod" -- a "usual modernist"
it's possible you'll say.
RAYNOR: Yet is not that a contradiction in phrases? How do you
outline "trad mod?"
MOD MATT: Good, there are a number of us -- you recognize, youngsters
of their past due young adults and early 1920s -- who've rediscovered
the kinds and tune of the early nineteen sixties. As Mods we dig Motown, soul track, and early rock & roll, and we adore to decorate up effective in coats and ties. Such a lot of all we dedicate a whole lot of concentration to our scooters -- our motor scooters. All of this in a time whilst
most youngsters get dressed in ripped shirts, diminished denims, and dream of quickly
autos or Harley-Davidson bikes.
RAYNOR: Nonetheless it's 2017, now not 1964 or 'sixty five. That become over fifty years in the past. Rather a lot has converted on account that then. This life style of yours is a real "unfashionable" tradition, would not you assert?
MOD MATT: That's our -- or MY method of being someone, a fashion of status out in a crowd. Moreover, sensible grooming and the scooter quite is smart within the twenty first century: Scooters get seventy miles according to gallon of fuel -- so it makes my "carbon footprint" smaller. In addition, they are sensible too. They may be straightforward to park, simple to get because of busy site visitors, and such a lot of all, they are wedding
based in a unfashionable variety of means. If every person rode a scooter, we would shop electricity and the roads would not be clogged with polluting vehicles!
