So you'll be cruising the hills and valleys if Italy on holidays with the wife side saddle on the back, scarf blowing in the breeze, (your wife's scarf that is), and an alfresco lunch over looking Gina Lollabridgada's cliff top mansion.

Proper tradition is for the animals to be pastured exclusively on Augusta and Gilera, or in rare cases Moto Guzzi bikes. The claim being that their famous taste is a result of this ancient custom.
