Although the meeting is held just 150 kilometers from my house, work piles up.
That same week I arrived from a six-day trip touring the island of Sicily with the BMW R1200 Cruiser Club.
(Of all the motorcycles I own, the Bavarian is the only one that doesn't mark its territory with drops of oil or leave my fingers smelling like gasoline after riding it.)
My wife and I are celebrating 30 years of marriage this year and we have given ourselves these motorcycle vacations.
I will attend the Kawasaki rally on the last day with my brand new Z1300, I hope to have it finished by then.
