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

Silly human trick commentary not needed for this image of the e' stupido gringo touristo americano and the world record shattering 1956 Siluro (which rightfully means silver torpedo). It should be noted that when the articles say record beating, that's like saying the oceans are just a bit of water, for this little beast based on the Gran Sport 100, beat just about everything in it's wake (metaphorical pun intended for it rained a bit during the record setting paces) with 40+ records, including several that fell in the 250cc class (and ummm, it was a what size scooter?! ).

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!!
