moto guzzi le mans
by minichamps .
last weekend I got on one of those "follow the trail" things I do quite a lot.
it all started with one of my Flickr contacts posting an image of a De Tomaso car. I commented to say that I'd got a die cast model of one. He then suggested that I post a photo of the model on Flickr. Whilst I was in the shed I found quite a few more old die cast models that I had when I was a kid but just couldn't bring myself to get rid of them. I did a bit of web browsing and a few of them seemed worth something, at least - but not much, they were toys and got played with so none of them are really mint.
I dropped one of my kids off somewhere and saw there was a "Toy and Model" fair on in the vicinity. Ah, I will grab the boxes and go back and try and sell some. As I wandered around I saw this lovely little Moto Guzzi Le Mans for sale. I did a bit of negotiating and got it for about half what it should be :-)
I'd posted a picture of a Moto Guzzi Le Mans in my photostream a little while ago about how it really got me into motorcycling in some way. So I thought it was only right and proper that I have a reminder of that on my desk.
