Motorcycle life – motorbike travel and pictures
The sounds and the smells that tell us summer is on the way. There’s nothing quite like the smell of cut grass, especially after the first cut of Spring. There is something quite uplifting about the freshness of that smell. Couple that smell with the lifting of the cold and grey of winter and the […]
Moto Guzzi V7 750 Cafe Racer the beauty of an Italian V twin I posted the other day about my BMW RnineT. That post was to mark the 7th anniversary of my ownership of that bike. In that post I said the only constant in the garage and the only bike that was here before […]
Rolling back the years – BSA, Honda & Moto Guzzi at Broxton. A couple of weeks ago I wrote about meeting a guy called Ian who was on his pretty impressive Triumph TR6 and who I had met when I stopped at the Broxton Butty Van (get directions here) located behind the Edgerton Arms in […]
Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe – out and about and coffee at Tilly’s. Apart from taking the Moto Guzzi for its MoT last week, it seems absolutely ages since I have been out on it. The ride up to MW Motorcycles for the MoT is so close to home that it barely counts as a ride […]
Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe time for the annual MoT at MW Motorcycles After having my BMW RnineT in MW Motorcycles earlier in the month for its annual MoT (see this link), it was time to make another trip – this time with the Moto Guzzi. As ever a trip to see Alan and Chris at […]

Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe – summer days picture post It’s more about the pictures than the words in this blog post – what’s not ot like about this classic Italian model with looks that are as easy on the eye as they are timeless. This time it’s my beautiful Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe Classic. Not […]
Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe Classic – another trip to MW Motorcycles Another day and another trip to MW Motorcycles. The last time I was there with the Moto Guzzi was back in September/October last year (2020) after the bike had developed some electrical problems which ended what should have been a decent ride having to […]
Back on two wheels and a return to something like normal … part two Not really a great deal to add to the words about getting back on two wheels and a return to normal at Part One and which you can read at this link Part One. Part of getting back to normal (on […]
