Title: Distinguished (Guzzista) Visitor to the Moto Grappa
Post by: Bill Hagan on April 05, 2015, 07:23:59 AM

Tired, apparently, of my frequent whining here about various wrenching woes — see, e.g., http://wildguzzi.com/forum/index.php?topic=75554.0 — Charlie Mullendore (http://www.AntietamClassicCycle.com (http://www.AntietamClassicCycle.com)) rode down on his "new" Cagiva Elefant with a Yam-riding escort (Leo Rocca) to counsel me.

Here are some pix of that brief visit in which Charlie came, saw, conquered … and left.

Thanks for the counsel, Charlie!

Wow, that was pretty quick.  Didn't even need to take off his coat!

Very close to "tru dat."   ::)

And, almost embarrassing as I have been stymied for days weeks ... uhm ... quite a while ... with "what cable, wire, etc., goes where."

But, the unmentioned reason for Charlie's quick analysis, findings, and departure was he and Leo were hungry and Charlie was trying to figure out the closest "qualifying" diner, etc. 

Kathi and I were packing for Atlanta and (very apologetically) could not feed them.
