Unusual Guzzi Encounter
« on: May 22, 2018, 01:44:40 PM »
On Sunday I pulled up to a coffee bar on my old Eldorado.
A guy sitting in the car next door remarked on the bike, seemed to know a little about it.
He said you won't believe this, I'm a Guzzi too.

Sure enough he pulled out his ID, surname Guzzi

 What was his first name ?

 If I had been Peter Cetera's dad , Peter's first name would have been Ed .

 We're gonna call him Moto from now on , so his real first name doesn't matter anyway  :laugh:

 We had a local guy by the name of Newton , Fred G , when he scribbled his name it looked like Fig, so everyone called him Bill .

 Just kidding , we called him Fig  :rolleyes:

We've got a small engineering firm in town here named "Guzzi" and I've always assumed it was a family name for the owner.

My wife also has a friend from med-school who has family with the last name of "Guzzi".
