Mods would gather at all-night clubs such as the Twisted Wheel Club to show off their clothes and dance moves. They would typically use scooters as their mode of transportation, typically either Lambretta or Vespa. One reason for this is that public transit stopped relatively early, and scooters were cheaper than cars. After a law was passed requiring at least one mirror be attached to every motorbike, many mods added 4, 10, or even 32 mirrors to their scooters as a mockery of the new law. This can be seen in the cover for The Who's album, Quadrophenia, which depicts the main character, Jimmy, on his scooter looking into his four rear-view mirrors.
