Weather and plans

The past few days have been ideal in Wisconsin. Today I took my '72 XS2 to work. It's a casual ride, 35 minutes at legal speeds. In a couple weeks I leave for Mid-Ohio. I have wanted to go there for several years but things have a way of interfering. This year it will likely happen. I have time set aside, vehicles in good fettle, and an excellent traveling companion.
I will take my Moto Guzzi V65 as it is a good bike for both short trips in traffic and on the road. Plus it has saddle bags so I can carry a few items with me during the day. Following the event we plan to go further and ride the dragon before heading for home.

Work on my Ducati 160 Monza Jr. is slow. The frame is painted, shocks painted, fenders straight and in primer. I have hopes of having it done prior to Wildcat in September. Labor Day weekend is the Wildcat Rally for the XS650 and Virago owners (plus whoever else shows up). It's always a good event held near Wildcat Mountain state park in south western Wisconsin.

I just received an advance copy of a book titled Ducati Singles-First Person. It is very well done and I highly recommend it. Look for it on e-bay. LN
