Seventeenth South'n Spine Raid 2021

Recommended Posts

No surprise that there are those of us anxiously looking this far ahead. Plus, I was reminded that some folks have to put in time-off requests by year end.

As ever:

Weekend after US Labor Day

(Sept. 10-12, 2021)

Tellico Plains ,TN, USA

Get There. Bring Tools.

:luigi::race::bier:

Here, again, 2021 is Moto Guzzi's centesimo, so we ought to whoop this up! (I'm not at all sure how "whoop this up" translates into Italian). :mg:

 

Those riding in from Varsseveld or Bungendore can head out now and have plenty of time to "Get There" . . . :nl::grin:

So, Ago has a B&B, eh?

Seems his daughter Vittorio has the B&B while Ago has opened his Trophy Room and is still passionate about his tifoso ("fans").

What a fine gentleman. Such a credit to the sport.

Looks like the perfect place for a SpineRaid! I'm thinking @v11_meticcio should round up about a dozen of our brothers and post pics of Ago hanging around all those gorgeous V11  . . .  :mg:

While musing about the Isle of Man, It occurred to me that the logistics would be easier and the event more interesting if I shipped the bike into Italy and rode it to IoM...

Well, the last time you embarked on an epic (10,000 mile circumnavigation of the Continental US) ride, you managed to work the South'n SpineRaid in!  Swing by again, then ship your Guzzi out of Atlanta . . .

Or better, swing by on the way back home! :mg:

Someone asked me if I was going to Mandello del Lario, instead of the South'n SpineRaid, for the Centenary Celebration . . .

Showing up at the Seventeenth South'n SpineRaid, with 200.000 km on my Sport, IS my Centenary Celebration! :mg:

A couple guys have already made reservations. Coming on six months out, so I suppose I should get with it and make mine . . .

There are other places around that folks stay, or camp, but this is the locus. And where most of the tools get put to use. :luigi:
