VMD 2006 - MV Agusta

When I'm not lurking behind a camera I sometimes contract to organize historical motorcycle exhibits, so I go from Cameraman to Museum Curator. Vintage Motorcycle Days (or VMD as it's known) offers a unique oppertunity to really expolore the history because of the size of the display so from my love of Italian motorcycle history perspective, it's impossible to resist the chance to "show off the history". In 2006, the featured marque was MV Agusta and Agostini was coming, how could I resist?Join me for "how I spent my summer vacation".

The highlight of Vintage Days is the Marque of the Year Museum. This years exhibit was MV Agusta. $5 Million in bikes brought together by private owners at their own expense sums up the passion the marque inspires. Organizing it all takes us months and months but the results are really worth it. Because of the size of the tent it's possible to display the entire MV lineage from the beginning to current in a historical timeline that really shows off the heritage and it's evolution.
