Our counterparts in Italy: near fanatics!

[Tailgate]

Here's a link to our counterpart FZ6 Forum in Italy. Even if you don't understand Italian language, you can get an idea of how seriously "Fazer" riders over there take group riding! It's really something. The top of the page refers to an upcoming 20-22 "maggio" (month of May) group ride. Check out how much effort is put into all of this business! It's about the same as booking a tour guide vacation package with all the trimmings (except everybody rides own FZ6). It's almost entertaining how seriously FZ6 riders take their pastime. I think it might surpass the Harley-Davidson mania here in the US.

Looks like they've got around 85 FZ6 riders so far for this one!

That's great! Good for them but they are missing out on all of the fun with this group!! I don't know Italian any way.

I looked at the route they planned and switch over to Google Earth,zoomed in and I could see my wife's grandfather stirring a pot of marinara sauce. Then he looked up and shook his wooden spoon yelling Mangiare!! Mangiare!! :BLAA:
