National Guzzi Rally Flooded out

[rickcorwn]

This past weekend was the National Moto Guzzi rally at a nice little campground in SE Minnesota. I don't know how much this made the news across the country but SE MN got one hell of a lot of rain this weekend, like over a foot after a rather wet week. I owned a Guzzi in a previous life so I take an interest in the occasional guzzi event. I've even attended a MN Guzzi rally at this very campground. I'll let the picture tell the rest of the story. BTW everyone made it out alive.

The Moto Guzzi demo fleet

Notice the high water mark on the roof of the pavilion

There's a motorcycle in this picture, notice the trunk and bag behind the stairs

Truck and trailer with bikes in it

Truly sad. Apparently, no one was hurt - did I read that right? The upside is that radman might have a whole lotta fun wrenching on some Ey-tailion iron!

Do you think Rad will learn to swear in Italian while working on them? .....or just start eating a lot of spaghetti & meatballs?...

Mental note: If NAFO takes place in SE Minnesota, skip it.
