Picture needed.....
« on: February 08, 2022, 02:54:34 PM »
......for use on Va. rally T-shirt. I need a clear, sharp "action" picture of a late model Guzzi. I'd prefer a "dressed" bike (bags & windshield) big or small block doesn't matter, just so its obviously a Guzzi. By "action" I mean layed over in a tight turn at speed. Rider dressed in proper gear, looking ahead into the turn like he/she knows what they are doing . It will be printed on the back of the shirt w/lines about being a rider finishing with "We are the last wolves in a world of sheep". Free shirt to the picture provider.
Thanks,

From the JB " rat Guzzi" RIP thread.. it would be fitting to memorialize  one of the most hard core guys to ever ride a Guzzi.





I'm pretty sure there are other pics oh him on the dragon somewhere but I couldn't find in the search function.

There may be better photos, but there isn't a better representative of Moto Guzzi.

JB wins hands down.

What was that mate of Pete Roper’s called, who had the Griso.
He crashed the guts out of it, but there was a beaut shot of him at a track day, knee on the deck stuff.

It’ll be in the archives someplace.
It was Waterbottle I think.

Old mate Waterbottle from here in Oz, sent me these upon request.
I thought they might be suitable for your needs.
A damn good perv in any case.

Great choice of rider, but might be nice to find a pic with long pants at least. :shocked:

The most "dressed" Guzzi that i have ever seen...

Nothing much better than a Tannat from the Salta region.

Printing photos require four color process. Dragging a squeegee over a silk screen ain't gonna cut it. You need to look for a line drawing.

Thanks much to all who posted pix. The one I chose is in the hands of the silkscreen artist now.  As soon as I'm happy w/how the shirts will look, I'll post it on our Va Rally website & repost the website link here on wildguzzi.
Again, Thanks!

Someone needs to tell this guy there's this thing called Public transport. I'd rather catch a bus than ride an atrocity like that.
