White Ambo w/ sidecar spotted in Lancaster, PA city today
« on: May 23, 2021, 02:23:16 PM »
Saw a nice white 70’s Ambo with white sidecar riding around Lancaster city this afternoon. Anyone from this site or know of him?

Actually that was me.

My dad, the lengendary Dick Whitehead... who still rides his white Convert w/ sidecar at age 88, passed the Eldorado sidecar machine on to me, his son. It sure looks good and rides well, and it's a nice stablemate for my '14 California 1400 Touring.

I was riding in the annual Distinguished Gentlmens Ride to raise money for mens health issues (e.g., prostate cancer research).

Wow, you're my neighbor. I'm on Belmont road between 741 and 896, about five miles from you. I'm Dick Whitehead's son and a brother to mmcwhitehead. Between my wife, our son and I we have five street legal Guzzis and five others. mmcwhitehead, dad and I along with my brother Jim are all long time Guzzi fanatics. I've been a Guzzi owner/rider since 1972. We need to sponsor a local Guzzi meet up. Maybe when I recover from my broken foot we could do that.

I was on Belmont today taking a fun ride on my 08 Breva, earlier I came home from an auction via Belmont.   I live right behind the Gap Diner on Pequea Ave.  Larry
