Dee-Dee Ducati....

Easter weekend rolled around with great weather and I just had to let Dee-Dee feel the first spring rays on her new paint, yes it's Hot Rod red suede (in other words, primer) and now she's just awaiting the gentle touch of Hot Rods by Max's pinstriping sword to finish it all of. I'm still not 100% sure about the exhaust, Supertrapp och just a straight chrome pipe, the headers will be wraped in either case. I feel the look, slightly worn stripper, is almost quite there. With new tires and some wiring left to do then it's of to Custom Bike Show on June 6'th for her first public outing....

Saturday Italian style....


After closing up shop I took the 2009 Vespa GTS 300ie for it's first real ride, 240km was spent on it during the day. First a quick (if you can call 130kp top speed quick) run down to Stockholm where I met up with Aprilia Moto 6.5 & wine fanatic Ingela at Caffé Ugo for a warm foccacia & coffe, then we went cruising around Stockholm soaking up the sun and seeing tons of bikes all over the place, after saying goodby to Ingela it was back on the road home to Mosta Hill for a nice Nonino Grappa and lounging in front of the TV with house cat Enzo Ferrari....
