The first time I ever skied was in Passo Tonale in 1980 Shocked

Rode through there on the way to the Gavia Pass from the Dolomites in 2010..... Not changed much and I do like the Italian prices on booze and coffee Wink

Have a good one Cool

WMMST.. Pan passed MoT (after a minor tweak on the head bearings and a pair of front wheel bearings). The combination of those goes someway towards explaining the front end shimmy it's had of late that I'd put down to a f*cked front hoop. Embarrassed .

double check the profile of the front tyre... I got all the way to The South of France on my CB1300 before I found out a 60 profile was on the front not a 70... that made the front very peculiar and prone to slapping at every opportunity.
