Riding in Mandello del Lario

[antonio carroccio]

That's a long drive or ride. Mandello is a couple hours ride north of Milan.

Yeah, sure...!

 

With a bicycle.

 

Milano-Lecco is about 30 min. Maybe 45 if you take it easy.

Easy, Antonio,

 

these guys are not Italians.

Americans want torque since they don't know the italian way - full throttle

 

stormsedge - in Roma, check the driving style of the scooters,

you'll understand what I mean.

OK, it's been a few years since I've been there. Maybe I'm thinking of someplace else to Milan. I'll have to look on a map. I know I drove a couple hours from somewhere along the lake down to Milan. 30 minutes, eh? I can drive fast if I gotta, but I don't usually gotta.

WHEN IN DOUBT - GAS IT!!!

I agree with jrt

 

for a stopping-to-look-at-map-take-a-wrong-turn-backtracking Canadian such as myself...1.5 to 2 hours wouldn't be unusual

One week to go and I am off to Germany and then Italy! Since I cannot find an opportunity to rent a Guzzi, I will have to settle for the Audi TT Roadster I have booked! I wonder if they have speed governors on rentals? I'll find out on the Autobahn.

 

Hope to have some good pictures of Mandello!!
