Guzzi in "The Antique Motorcycle" magazine
« on: November 01, 2018, 07:11:10 PM »
I received my November/December copy of The Antique Motorcycle and the featured brand for their "Pulp Non-Fiction" segment is Moto Guzzi.
I don't believe that these magazines can be purchased but if you live near any members of the AMCA, you can get a look. I'm sure that most of what is in the article is well known to this group, but it is still cool to see Moto Guzzi get some press and be featured with some very nice machines.

Sorry, I went away for a while. If you join now, you won't get this issue in the mail, although you are able to see it online once you join.
Even without the Guzzi content it is a nice piece of motorcycle porn with lots of well loved bikes. Even if you don't join you can get an online sampler just to check it out.
It is generally a historical piece regarding the evolution of the brand, going into a little more depth on a few models. It also discusses some of the racing accomplishments. In my opinion it treats Moto Guzzi as a curiosity, yet respectful. Fr' instance the same column in the previous issue was about Nimbus.
