Motogiro d'Italia 1955

Motogiro d'Italia 1955 Emilio Mendogni

I'm amazed by what they did with those beautiful primitive machines! Look at the tires, they're the size of today's mountain bike tires!
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

I love that the fork tubes and frame tubing the same size. Looks like it has a Sportster headlight.

the front rotors are off a mountain bike. 

just blows my mind what they rode with. 

i love those 5 spoke campagnolos.  could be FPS as well, but I bet they are the former.

old school Stradas on the back.  I have two pairs I need to refurbish. 

beer cans under the tire... LOL

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Angel Nieto! [thumbsup] [beer] [Dolph] [popcorn] [bow_down] Those that knew of him is a shrinking group of fans.

For those that don't know...

ANGEL NIETO 12+1.mpg

He was the all time king of "tiddler" race bikes. LOVE those stinger tipped expansion chambers! I can smell the gas/oil mix in the air just thinking about it! ;D
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.
