Buon giorno Stef, Mek, Hook and David: Just wanted to let you blokes know FJR Forumites will once again be on your side of the pond. Let's meet up!
Hey Don, I'm not sure I can round up a posse to hook up with you in Venice. My riding pardners get twitchy on freeways—and I can't blame them. OTOH, riding to Venice on regular roads is a massive PITA.
But I have tentatively booked a room for me at your hotel and I'll join you there. I may drive over or even take a fast train. Either way, I'll bring wine so we can celebrate in style and regret it the next morning, when we visit Venice on wobbly legs....
What time do you expect to arrive at your Venice hotel? How many
signorinas should I show up with?
Hahaha...just kidding. I know y'all are traveling with wives in tow (and my own will execute me without due process for even
thinking that)
