Motogiro d'Italia 2008 ROMA!
Motogiro d'Italia 2008 - Rome to Vieste and back. This year we started in Rome, one glance at the schedule could tell you the new team organizing the event this year was taking the compitition seriously - raising it to another level if you will. Nine hour days of mountain riding would have done just that but for the first time in eight years, we had days of bad weather. The result was the toughest Motogiro d'Italia yet. Thanks to Christian Clarke and Lorainne Bockmier for their fine photos.

And then it was all over but the loading. Next year we start in Bologna, something we all like because it's easy to get our bikes to and has a simple airport. The 2009 route takes us from Bologna to the Italian Riviera and back, a fantastic area to visit. (Emilia - Liguria - Piemonte, think truffles, Borolo and Asti wine and more) We are well into the planning already, my phone has been ringing all week. See you next year!
