Moto Grappa Tech Days MMXXII
« on: February 23, 2022, 08:44:19 AM »

Good morning from the top of Virginia where we are still tidying up the battlefield and shooting the wounded after the latest iteration of Moto Grappa Tech Days.





The slideshow and its captions tell the story without more, so I'll just post the link with the only intro being that it's mostly about wrenching, bench racing, competitive eating, bourbon, beer, and BS.  :grin:

As with my other Smugmug albums, the link opens in "landscape collage," meaning you don't have to slog through every one of the (yes, I know, too many  :wink:) pix to see all or the ones, if any, that might interest you.  Hover your cursor over individual pix to see captions if you care.

Well Done Bill, had a great time.  Glad a few of the photos don’t make the “final cut”!

Bill,
Your photo essay and commentary make me feel like I was actually there.  Wait I was...
Thanks again,
Dave
