Sandy Watson, a racer friend, once told me: "The man with the most toys when he dies - wins".
Well I think Tacio is certainly up with the leaders with a collection of 43 bikes.

Tacio's "Museum" (for motorbike fans only)
Here are a few pictures of the bikes Tacio has in his collection - all of them are in working order (apart from those that are clearly beyond repair).
The climate means there is no need for walls.
These old ones are not in working order but look good as ornaments
These BMW's will be of special interest to Bezza who is building his own collection of such beasts.
There were a few nice English bikes
This Triumph Tiger was my favourite with a Matchless and BSA too.
Of course with such a collection you need a proper workshop - this is one of the two on site.It goes without saying that there is a music system and large TV (the day of the BBQ theTV was tuned to Recife versus local rivals (can't remember who), funny enough it was Sandra (Tacio's wife) who was the most ardent fan.

What happend to disappearing into the Amazon jungle!!! It would have been a bit tough for you, I have spoken to the shop and as your tent has not come out of the bag they will give you a full refund.
ReplyDeleteTickets for England v Italy sounds like a perfect opportunity to meet up.....as long as I don't have to drink badger bollocks beer, London Pride is strong enough for me.
Nice of Henry & Clara to offer use of GT40 while they galavant around Europe in the little runaround? Just back from Pisa had a bit trouble at customs as they asked if was the Matt Munro impersonator in Imola last year who had problems in a bar, hotel and hedge?
Boca Jnrs are playing River Plate about the time you are back BA, what an experience that would be?
Doesn't 5 days on a boat count?
ReplyDeleteI will do my best to use it before I get back.
Old Ford being tidied up for Wilks as we write.
ReplyDeleteBut he will need to graduate from Pride to at least Broadside (5.7) or EBC (5.5) before trying the load pedal.
Letting Wilks loose in the old nail is one thing but I have seen him pissed and I wouldn't lend him a golf club in such a condition.
