I'm new in this group but familiar with MG motorcycles. Few years ago I got Griso 1100 but due to financial issues had to sell it...was very sorry. Now I bought California 3 from 1990 and want to ride for long distances and also improve some.parts like front fork and calipers.
Hope for open minded discussion on this forum.

Mile widziany!

My wife -- who is from Erie, Pennsylvania, but 100% Polish DNA :inlove: -- and I will visit her roots in Poland (north of Warszawa) next year.

It's hard enough to find a Guzzista and see a Moto Guzzi in Italy, so I'll buy you a beer when we are near you. :clap:

Best,

Bill
In my opinion, the best region in Poland to visit is Zakopane, bar none. Bill, you definitely should include this location into your itinerary. Furthermore, the very best way to get there is walking. Specifically, hiking across the Tatras from Slovakia. Just be careful with the homemade slivovitz & palinka. As they told me at numerous chata górska, drink quickly before the lights go out!

Kathi, my Perfect Pillion & Polish Princess :inlove:, may be a Medicare Maideni, but she is also a fit jockette, who loves hiking and especially likes to charge up hills at warp speed! I am fat, not fit, and only like hills when assaulting the twisty ones on my Guzzis. :sweating:

So, @Vagrant & @V700Steve, this is directed at you two personally as I'll know the source: if you ever mention to Kathi @TombaLaBomba 's mention of the "best way" to get to that area, I'll ... well, please don't. :giggle:
