That time of year again. FALL MOTOGIRO!

This years Giro was not without incident but the weather was perfect and Vermont was in its full beauty. My little CL90 ran perfectly and team Ministry of Transportation was a total mess.

Giro rider and friend Dave Roper has a unique ritual of cutting his hair and beard only on the equinox. That means one of his twice yearly cuts came right in the middle of Saturdays ride, so Dave pulled over for a quick shave.

Spring Motogiro

The Spring Motogiro came and went this past weekend and it was a great time as usual. The weather was perfect for the 120 riders. The little Moto Guzzi finally went for the whole weekend (thanks to Pete Talabach). It wasn't fast but it did what it was supposed to. The USCRA is a great group and I can't believe they can make this thing happen.

UPDATE!!!!
Yes it's long, yes it's choppy but it has some fun stuff in there. It looks like we are going a zillion MPH but I'm pretty sure I never broke 55 on the Slowdola.

Fall Giro

I didn't take too many photos this time at the MotoGiro that took place this past weekend in Corning NY. I broke down the first day with 30 miles to go with a charging issue. New battery and clean connections and I was good for Sunday.
Nice place to break down.
