Major Moto Guzzi Ride Out Through Europe To EICMA

Italian motorcycle manufacturer legend, Moto Guzzi, are organizing an enormous motorcycle ride out. It's not just a bunch of Moto Guzzis going for a day ride. No. It's 6 "caravans" consisting of Moto Guzzis starting in 6 different locations in Europe, and riding to world's biggest motorcycle exhibition in Milan, Italy: Eicma Open link in a new window.

It's a completely organized event. Moto Guzzi have organized hotels, restaurants, ferries, entrance to EICMA, big party in Milan etc. They have breakdown assistance and even have a follow/sweeper car. All you need to do is show up on your bike. Each "caravan" has a price associated to it, since distances are different. Below are the caravans, listing only the single rider option (they also cater for pillion, and even have a "DeLuxe" option):

One would think/hope they have something interesting to unveil if they are going through the trouble of organizing this event.

I didn't even think of that.  To me it sounded like just a good ride being planned - hotel, food, roadmap, ride-support van, EICMA admission, sticker, personalized pic, travel notebook, and of course a big party.  They are going to put all the bikes together in the shape of an eagle for a big pic.

From the links, it sounds like they are trying for a Guinness World Record of some sort.

even have a follow/sweeper car.

You sure that's not a Harley event?
