Remember my Cucciolo

[Albie]

You may or may not remember I purchased a 1948 Ducati cucciolo a number of years ago. The original Ducati which has spawned into what we ride now. Well she has now moved on to better pastures and honestly I'm so glad. She spent a few years with me at work sitting quietly and starting every time. I never did get her road registered because it actually wouldn't have been fun to ride around here .
So in a decent condition with most of her patina and all her old parts has just left in a van going abroad.
I say abroad but you can all go and see her on the Isle of Man at the motor museum.

Nice one, Albie.

I did wonder whether that would be a suitable resting place for Capo's ultra-modified S4R.
In fact I casually asked them about it once when I was over there and they did say that they would have a space for it but that's as far as it ever went because I doubt very much that they would have wanted to pay the asking price and I didn't dare suggest a donation or loan.

I feel almost lucky. I lost money on it tbh but I honestly don't mind. These things have a value of who wants it. I got back 60% to which I purchased something more than useful for that money.
