Orson your killing me...
Here's one for the team   , thanks!

Beautiful trip!

WOW

Not sure what else to say - that already hasn't been mentioned.  Really blown away by the pics & could tell that U must have had unreal weather.

And I'll take the route of Conpilot - U'll need back up & since I have a bump leg too (amongst other shyte) we'll be a pair of gimps.

Bravo Team Orson

P.S. - Passing this to friends to get them to buy motos, cause if these pics & r/r don't get U in the fever, nothing will!

Orson,

Thanks. You made my morning better. The Amalfi coast is one of the best places I have been to. Absolutely stunning place in so many ways.

[ConPilot1]

Nice Zeno watch too. Looks like a Zeno. I had one just like it if it's a Zeno.  

[Orson]

It's a Junkers Moto Guzzi Special Edition

[ConPilot1]

Nice.  

ETA 2836 movement??

Grazie for the great write up! I'm getting excited about my September trip and your report just turned the anticipation dial to 11.

Dave.

ETA 2836 movement??

I dunno. It looks a lot like this one. A 2824-2

Grazie for the great write up! I'm getting excited about my September trip and your report just turned the anticipation dial to 11.

Great report!   My wife and I are going to be in Italy in September. No bike though.   Still, I can hardly wait. Thanks for taking me along.

[sagerat]

All that was missing was, well, nothing.  OK, maybe one pic of Team Orson.  

Thanks for quick cyber-vacation.

[Gerry.GEG]

Very nice. Italy is on my bucket list. I'm half Italian so I better get there someday..

[FJR-UK]

Thanks for the ride, Orson. I hope the leg pain eases before the next trip!

I see you rode through Matera. Anything to report? Troglodytes?

Cheers!

(PS: I figure a plastic cup is still better than swigging from the bottle... )

I screwed up on that part of the trip. If I had known beforehand that I would have to ride all the way to Taranto before I found a hotel room, I would have gone to Matera instead  

Poor planning on my part  

I'll hafta make it back there some day, as it looks like there are some neat places to stay

Don't know how I missed this. Wow, absolutely beautiful.
