Just stumbled on it on the web. Thought it was a fun one to kick-off this thread.

OK, so another one... the Dondolino I got to race in '03/Team Dondo. Now owned by Miles C/San Fran - show winner at the MGNOC National Malibu '07.

Here's my (till recently) 1955 Falcone GT. Steve Rossi gave it a new home.

Here's it's younger brother, a 1971 Nuovo Falcone Military. It went along with it's sibling to Connecticut.

And, here's an unusual magazine cover I came across on ebay a while back.

Nice, thanks John. My buddy had a Nuovo as well out here.

Words from Patrick Hayes about this past weekend;
Yesterday was likely the last hurrah for the riding season. Its supposed to piss rain for the next week and then we'll be deeply into the holiday season. So, some local Guzzi folks did a day ride from San Jose, up Mount Hamilton to the Lick Observatory, and out east to Livermore with a visit to SpeedSports. Gray, cold, and damp in the morning down at sea level, but crystal clear once we got above the cloud line on the mountain. The modern Guzzi riders are all impressed by the way an old single can handle mountain roads.

Along the way we bumped into another Guzzi single at our lunch stop. Here's a nice pic of my blue Falcone with the Astore:

This is what happens when you tour with 15 Falcone and discover a wedding party at your hotel. We got a little grease on her dress, but it will be memories of a lifetime. Full size image HERE.

Today we were on a loop tour in Puglia. The lunch destination was Otranto. About 20km short, we overtook this absolutely beautiful Carabinieri SuperAlce. We stopped and he guided us into the center of town, joined us for a historical tour and then led us to a coastal parking area for lunch. Spectacular bike.

I doubt many of you sport a Carabinieri emblem on your bike.

I just bought me a new toy. Last week a mate made me an offer I couldn't refuse so his Airone is now mine! I've always wanted a Falcone but can't afford one. I'm more than happy with this alternative!

Beautiful Will! Nice score!

Below is Dave Roper on a Dondolino from Road America this past weekend.

No, I haven't taken the Dondolino on the track yet. In fact, I'm in the process of taking it apart now at Framecrafters in Union, Il., to check on it's condition before putting it on the race track. We did find a crack in the frame that we're going to weld. There are a couple of cracks in the rear hub that have to be dealt with. But, the bike basically seems sound and I probably put 6-10 miles on it riding around the access roads at Rd. Am. and another couple here warming up the oil to dump it. Oil came out clean. It seems to have good toot for an old can. Speaking of cans, I can't believe the can on the end of the exhaust is original. Maybe the factory did have an option, but this one seems crudely done. It has nothing in it, but might have once. The steel exhaust pipe seems cut short with an aluminum pipe slipped over it, gas welded to an aluminum can. Dave Roper

Thought you might like to see my 1931 Sport 15 which is back together now. I rode it from London to Suffolk on good-going A-roads, and some back roads 100 miles in all.

Hi Will,

Where in UK are you? The Airone is not second best to the Falcone in my view. I think it is a stunning design, quick for a 1950s 250, and with everything in balance.

Andy,

I'm near Gloucester & Forest of Dean. Unfortunately my Airone is a Turismo not a Sport so its pretty slow......too slow for modern main road traffic but great fun on country lanes.
