Looks like something Moto Guzzi made during the war.


"Goose" probably tries something like that too, but this is French, and the French at that time were known to be great tinkerers, with results to match.

Yeah, I should have said it looks like something Guzzi *could* have made during the war. Something

You could probably get a good trade in for a low mileage Ducati.


Nah. Duc is sleeping in the basement storage room.

With the rest of his dreams.

No steering unless that rowboat has a bow thruster.

That boat is a high technology marvel incorporating 'eyeball sensormatic rotational assist'. Where
you look is where you go. A sign on the bow says, "Don't look at women when operating this vessel."

Sometimes the sign gets torn away.
