the DUCATI factory and museum VISIT!!!!!!!!!

Starting in the lowly 50s and going around a parabolic lit curve on the floor to the present day, one could easily say that the Ducati motorcycles were displayed with an eye on getting the audience to interact with the machinery/art! Everything about this museum space was brilliant, including the 8ft+ high historical panoramic imagery that followed the bikes along their path (it is viewable in the top right of the photo above). On the walls were inscriptions in Italian and English which presumably went on about the bikes history, though I must confess (yer honor), it was just too bloody hard to spend time reading the tag lines. The presence of the bikes in view, literally stole your eyes the entire time. More drooling cups needed in other pics!

The road less traveled (much less at low speeds) does not exist in Italy. Note the white striped line in the middle of the Autostrada coming back from Bologne. Finally figured out that it really meant, "drive as you need to"! Gottah love those Italians. Fantastico. Click on the thumbnail image to do the dance.

Got questions...?...Got milk...?...send eMail to Jim Goodlett if you got either!!
