They shipped their own bikes a few weeks ago. The ship (Elsebeth) has already reached Auckland on the 21st. The Dutch Guzzisti fly on thursday.

Antonio, I know nooothing!

FYI: The registry is updated

We have a Renault Trafic van and a Mazda 626 (GF's) Last week she saw an Alfa Romeo 147 and thought it was a cute car! Saturday I picked one up for a short spin. The jury is still out...

At the moment I'm designing a brochure for the Dutch importer of these airbag jackets: http://www.hit-air.com/english/main.html They're really well designed jackets, and probably very safe, but I somehow have a safer feeling when I'm in my leathers.

Her upper lip is done, so my guess is she does not hesitate to do more... fake, and waaaayyy to big!

You learn something new everyday! Thanks.

There is one on german eBay: http://cgi.ebay.de/Olwanne-komplett-Moto-G...1QQcmdZViewItem

That's not bad Martin! Only one thing wasn't very clear: You say "You get to lose...bla..." That translates in "Je krijgt, verliest" which means "You get, lose" Which is it?

Kamperen! Ze hebben daar een klein veldje achter het restaurant/herberg en doches/wc's. Alle kamers zijn al volgeboekt. Is een leuk treffen met bijna alleen maar V11en. Mooie omgeving met veel bochten. Voertaal is wel duits... Samen rijden lijkt me leuk. Houdt er wel rekening dat ik door mijn arm geen doorrijder ben en helemaal niet van Autobahn houdt. Als je wilt kun je van donderdag op vrijdag bij ons overnachten en op de terugweg natuurlijk ook. (Sorry to the other readers that you have been confronted with a bit of Dutch on this forum.)

A few years back we had a similar thread: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1027

That would have been one more if I hadn't taken dike flying lessons...

Yep, but Boxmeer is too much "Cali and old shite" for me, so I'll be doing the german V11 rally. BTW, if any of you UK people are riding to the german V11 rally, you're welcome to stay over from thursday to friday. I leave on friday, maybe we can ride together? I was planning to take a scenic route - no Autobahn I don't live far from the route Rotterdam - Grebenhain

Probably a submarine designed and built in Belgium?

Antonio, the joke was originally about the Belgium navy, but they don't understand friendly insults...

I spotted another Italian Tenni owner on this forum: Franco Incorvaia from Messina

There already is an active topic on this : http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6979 I have closed this one.

What's next? Rotating hub caps? This is so wrong....

You mean the sponsorbar isn't visible? Click "Show / Hide sponsors" top-right.

Why did the Italian Navy didn't join the fights in WWII? They couldn't find their paddles...

Yes you can, but you have to put them on the exhaust. After every ride you take the off and empty them in the trashcan.

A well designed bike should get enough attention by itself, not by some tarted up 18 year old high school drop out with high heels and silicone boobs who pronounces Moto Guzzi as Moto "Gucci". Did I just write this? OMG, I'm getting old...
