    To Twinpegs or not … would you?

    Saw this on a Norden 901 long term test model. It has nothing to do with this particular rider, or test rider in this case … it’s more a general question if anyone here uses this?

    Is it just me …

    Or does any one else think this Guzzi is just so cool? ”Producing 115 hp and 77 ft lbs of torque from a 1,042 cc displacement, the new “shortblock” motor is four inches shorter from front to back than the old air-cooled, 1,200 cc power plant. Tilted five degrees further forward in the chassis...

    2022 ... what a crazy year ... so far.

    In conclusion, our 2022 ride was not what we had expected it would, should or could have been. The last few years have been challenging for many and most I know of just needed the open road to chill out on, that would also be true for Henri, Allen and I. All was new for Henri; new to bikes, new...

    Where ...? To Hoedspruit...? Why there ...?

    This was Allen's response when I first mentioned it. Why indeed. I woke up one morning some months back with this thought going around in my head, closely followed by more important items that was conveniently pushed to the side but kept re-emerging. But yes, Hoedspruit. In 1982 I found myself...

    My 2020 USA Ride ... "To New Mexico at 63mph".

    Much has been posted on this fine forum about non SA rides, and there has been some really great RR's of late on this subject.

    The Mountain Kingdom in May.

    To the Lesotho aficionados, some advice please. The plan: to do Sani before its too late - what’s it like in mid May? Where can we go in 5 or 6 days without killing ourselves? Where not to go in early winter and where to stay ... thanks in advance. Ian  8)
