Hi Philippe, I remember that Hejira for sale, it sold immediately! Really neat bikes and rare. Do you know how many were made? Lou |

I'm fine Carlo, Iook at the Forum everyday, and learn something new all the time. Projects have been a bit slow here as I have a real job that has gotten busy. Lou |

Attachment: 1981 F2 Ducati Pantah.jpg Hello Pat, there is a monologue in the movie "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" with Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy, where the great actor, gruff and grumpy, explains the beautiful Katharine Hepburn, the meaning of "MEMORIES". I should say this in Italian, however he says that his memories of her (his wife) are intact and clear, and no one can destroy them. I believe that life is certainly based on the future, but definitely the future is based on the positive memories. I hope that my concept is arrived at their destination. Thank you for your photo Pat, for me it is important to have a friend who has written a page in history. With admiration and respect, Carlo Leoncini. |

Carlo, I think you are expressing yourself, in English, better than those of us born into this language. Bill |

I wanted to know this, because in Tuscany, where I live in Italy, there is a pilot Laverda, very famous, Augusto Brettoni, he ran the 24 hours, and I would like to know please if you knew this pilot. Excuse my terrible English. Carlo. Carlo, I understand you loud and clear ![]() ![]() I know Augusto's name and fame since a good friend of me is THE Laverda specialist Gijs van Dijk and another good friend of me now races his Tripple Laverda Classic Endurance racer (will upload a picture of that bike, you must have seen them racing in Imola). My brother used to Ride Laverda's so I often have been in the Laverda specialist shop just 30 minutes from where I live. I am too young to have been there but my brothers visited Montjuic in 1982 and Endurace Racing to me always have been the greatest off all Motorcycle Race cattegories. In 1984 we visited Zeltweg and Spa to really enjoy the Factory TT1's of Walter Villa or the #7 Bike in the photo's that started as a privateer team (The French Police Team: Granie, Guishon & Vuilemin) but was awarded to race the factory bike's in Spa and other races. In Spa they finished 3rd which was amazing behind the RC30 Factory Honda and GSX Factory Suzuki! If you like more explanation who you actually see in the pictures let me know, my memory is rusty but still working. Anyway, my teenage dream came true with owning a Santa Monica now ![]() Ciao, Ron |
