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.

At the end of any day the center of attention is Piero the mechanic's van. Known for being able to fix anything with nothing and in mass quantities to boot since it seems like no matter how many bikes show up at his van door, everything that CAN run again IS running by the next morning
