    A few pictures from when I decided to go to southern Italyicon and back in 4 days, only on normal roads. Almost all mountain roads. I started from home, in Pordenone, and went all the way down to Metaponto, close to Taranto.
    In 4 days, 48 hours of riding, approximately 2850 km. Average speed of 59 km/h. 900 km under the rain...
    Cathartic trip. All alone, no phone, no navigation system, just a map in the luggage and a list of towns and cities I wanted to get to.
    I literally lost track of time...

    Volutzio!
    What a beautiful machine and country as well. Hope you are able to travel freely soon.
    Great stress reliever on roads like that.

    Thank you much for sharing.

    This is why we ride. The closest you can get to a vision guest without Peyote. I fall asleep thinking of past trips and ones to come.
