To help us celebrate this year's tribute to Italian Racing Cars & Racing Stars, it is only appropriate that we celebrate the Italian Racing Motorcycle as well.
If you are the owner of an Italian Racing Motorcycle, we would like to invite you to participate in this year's celebration of what could better be described as Italian Racing Machinery.
Please contact us with the details of your Racing Motorcycle (races, drivers, etc.) And please help us spread the word to other owners. Italian Motorcycles are always a big hit at the Concorso. Thanks again.

GRIDLOCK GONE
This is great news for exiting traffic at Concorso Italiano.
Excerpts from Carmel's Pine Cone:
Where once they fumed, drivers can now zoom - and they did so with relish, starting early Tuesday morning when the widening of Highway 1 through Carmel was finally finished.
. . . "I've never felt so good in my career in government about getting something done as I feel about that climbing lane," said supervisor Dave Potter, who shepherded the widening project through years of delicate negotiations."
. . ." After the new lane opened, even rush-hour traffic flowed smoothly where vehicles and frustrated motorists formerly clogged the roads, including Carmel Rancho, Rio Road, Carmel Valley Road and Highway 1."
. . . "There are like three cars waiting at the light and there's no backup at all. It would normally be backed all the way up Rio Road past the fire station."
. . . "They (the county) are my new heroes, and I hope folks will see this and will come to visit me more now that it's easier. I have had comments from people over the last two years that they would avoid coming down in the late afternoon because it was too hard to get around here because of the traffic. Not anymore."...
