Hi All,

Ok....just went over to the site that Jay mentioned. I think I liked the
black and white photo in the newsletter better. The colours don't do
anything for me.

The first Moto Guzzi I saw (only 6 years ago) was a freshly restored
Eldo...with red tank and white fenders. The moment I saw the bike I fell in
love with it. I have heard people tell me the exact same thing when they saw
the bike for the first time 30 years ago.

Do you think that the people who see a Moto Guzzi Stone for the first time
(their first sighting of a MG) are having the same thoughts?

As for Loop content. As I mentioned....when I first saw a Loop I fell in
love.....now I am "in love" with the bike because of it's character. Maybe I
initially fell in "lust" with the bike? :-) Hey....now there's a
name......Moto Guzzi California Lust? We'll keep that name for the retro
Eldo's that Mark builds :-)

Regards....Ian
