National Rally USA

[jrt]

Hi Folks,

The US National Moto Guzzi Rally is next week, July 13-16. Here's the advertising blurb:

 

35th Annual MGNOC Iowa National Rally

Place: Elkader, Iowa, City Park and Campground in wonderful northeast Iowa. We're looking for a big turnout this year - Iowa is always a popular rally to begin with. See full page rally ad on page 3 of this issue for information, or contact Iowa MGNOC Reps, George and Kay Vignovich: 515-285-7209. g.vignovich@att.net.

 

I'm going up on wednesday, the 12th, ride around Wisconsin on thursday, back home on friday, pick up the wife (she's coming back from London), and drive back up on saturday (in the car because Catalina will be with us) and back down on sunday. Busy weekend.

 

I won't be on my V11 sport, but I will drive my Eldorado up there (yeah, I know, I know). Please stop by and say hi if you see me and my bike. I hope to be camping in the part covered by trees.

I live ~4 hours from Elkader, so if anyone needs a place to stay (to or from) or wants a beer sunday night in Iowa City, let me know. I can't guarantee a bedroom, but I do have a nice back yard and a shower.

 

Anyone else going?

 

My bike, but I will have a small fairing on it- not this big one:

I'm going to be there! I'm leaving Friday morning after I get off work. This will be my second MG rally. I also went to the Virginia Rally a couple of weeks ago. I racked up 2300 miles in 6 days on my LeMans for that one so this one should be a piece of cake.
