guzzi sighting - cell phone commercial
« on: October 18, 2019, 11:07:42 PM »
someone may have mentioned this already and if so please accept a nod toward apology for the repitition.

i saw a recent tv commercial for t-mobile that showed a group of millennial on bikes heading out for a ride (replete with jeans with rolled up cuffs - quelle cool.)  the last shot of the group ride showed a young woman on a new guzzi (v7 or 9.) them guzzis are so photogenic.

the final shot of motorcycles in the commercial was that of a guy, lone rider,  on a road that looked like generic coastal california (highway 1.) in the aerial shot he is awkwardly and waveringly entering a left turn from the wrong part of the lane no less.

still and all - a guzzi sighting. cheers for that.

Yeah, I noticed that. Cool to see Guzzi getting some air time.

I noticed it too.  They don't linger on the bikes very long, so I think I saw the commercial about three times before I could verify the Guzzi sighting.
