Great video! Long but worth it.

Fantastic trip indeed, I can attest to it as I was part of it.
Sad thing is that we intended to repeat it this year for the 100th. deposits paid, shipping container booked, M/cycle pallets sourced, blah blah , then - has put a big fat stop to it. ... Bugger!!!!
Worst part is we know what we are missing, as others here also do.
Thinking of it makes me sad, but, our isolation means - has had a lesser impact here "Down under" ( in OZ)

Allthebest,
Craig.

Craig, that is a crying shame.  I feel bad about it and I have no stake in it.

I thought the 100 year anniversary celebration was a GO?

It may well be but with very limited flights to from and very limited quarentine places for the return it will be very expensive if you manage to put up a compeling reason to be allowed to travel they ae still struggling to get residents home. Full rollout for the - for the entire country is estimated for Aug/Sep, not garrenteed. As the nation has got off lightly there is not a grand panic to get it to ever one as soon as physically possible, the times we are in or something.

Thanks for that information Murray.  As one who hasn't considered traveling out of the country I haven't considered the ongoing restrictions world wide for travel. 

I finally made it through the whole video and loved it.  It is probably as close as I will ever come to visiting the Lake Como area.  Thank you for the work required to assemble that video!

A lot of that looked awfully darn familiar, nice job. That Eldorado sounded very nice too.
I always feel as flat as a shitcarter’s hat on the ferry from Calais back to Dover and the train from London Liverpool Street, to Heathrow is indescribably lousy.
But you start to think about next year...(or the one after..).

Are you guys the mob who I had lunch with at the Quorn Winery North of Ballarat, around about then ?

[12SCraig]

Yes Pete, it would have been.
Co incidentally Steve n Trish the owners of Quoin Hill winery got on the vino and pasta with us in Mandello in September 2018, they are also members of the MGoC Vic,  a random group of us had traveled over there ( on this occasion without our bikes) spending the weeks before and after the Anni party in Mandello, we hadn't expected to see them there, but, you know how things are in the Guzzi world.
On this trip the "Bride" joined us, being stuck on the shores of lake Como wasn't a hard sell

I'll be seeing Brian, the producer of the Vid, on Wednesday and will pass on the above complements. I'm sure he'll be chuffed.
BTW Brian also rides an 1100sport and a V50 Monza.
