pete roper Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 OK, some of you may remember me mentioning a while back that I've been roped in to doing a resto on this poxy Nuovo Falcone? Long and the short of it is that I and the owner will be making up a list of munt that the horrible old sh!theap requires and since I'm coming to the UK next month it would seem like an easy and/or sensible thing to do to hop on a ferry from the UK and go to Teo Lamers where I can actually TALK to a real human being rather than trying to use their crappy and un-navigable website! So who can a.) help me, yes I know that they probably have people thare who speak english but they probably won't understand me! and b.) come out for a night and introduce me to the dubious pleasures of Hollands finest hostelries????

Admin Jaap Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Pete, I'd be happy to meet you and have you over. Schedule permitted. Only 300 meters from my home stands a beautifully restored Nuovo Falcone Civile. Small warning; not much to do in my village, but I only live about 45 min. drive from TLM / Nijmegen. When are you planning to come over? That way I can warn the authorities. My neighbour's Nuovco Falcone: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Minnaert Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Well, Pete, I'll be there if timing makes it possible. You can visit my shed too:-), not so far from TLM is a moto guzzi museum. http://www.guzzipalace.nl Make a list, another good source for Nuovo falcone is Barbara Escher I think. http://www.escher.de/ . But if you have a complete list, you can send it to teo L before you go there. here is a list: http://www.devce.demon.co.uk/falcone/parts.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Field Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Good move, boys. pete is even better live than on the internet. For today, wish him happy birthday, as he's a half century old, now.

antonio carroccio Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I believe this is the bike of Monique, a Dutch Moto Guzzi club member. Seems to be a nice and good looking girl... Anyway, the bike has a history and this's registered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Jaap Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Antonio is right. BTW, has anyone heard from Pete? I have send him an email concerning his visit to NL, but got no respons yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete roper Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hmmm, As I thought, my email is up the sh!t again. It's been patchy for a few days. Jaap, I have a pathological hatred of cities, a small village sounds just about perfect for me Look, I don't know when exactly I'll be over but I imagine some time towards the last week of March. I'll try and communicate a bit more before I leave Oz but things are a bit busy here at the moment so it may not happen until I'm in the Qantas longe preparing for departure!
