Where Eagles Fly – The Official London to Milan Moto Guzzi Tour 2009


Moto Guzzi announces their most exciting ride-out to date. A journey that is as important as the destination.

This year the Moto Guzzi factory is launching a European tour ending at EICMA 2009, the 67th International Motorcycle show in Milan where a special celebration for Moto Guzzi owners will take place. UK Moto Guzzi owners will have the thrill of riding their own Guzzis in convoy across the heart of Europe.

Called “Where Eagles Fly”, this unique touring experience will be a great opportunity to meet fellow Guzzi owners and other club members from all over Europe on a trip to Italy with everything taken care of. Riders will receive a complete participation kit including Moto Guzzi road map showing the route, programme, hospitality voucher, badge, patch and customised Moto Guzzi diary for the trip. The best travel journals and photos capturing the most significant moments in the journey of each group will be published on the website http://uk.motoguzzi.it

From the moment riders turn on their engines at the departure point in London, Moto Guzzi will be on hand to provide support for the entire journey, with a lead rider and a back-up van with technical support. The organisers of the famous Mille Miglia race have been contracted to run the Where Eagles Fly tour, ensuring it will be a memorable and special experience for all participants.

Convoys of Moto Guzzi enthusiasts and their bikes will set off from six European cities to meet in Milan on November 10th for the opening of the EICMA 2009 motorcycle show.

On November 8th, the British Guzzisti participating in the first Where Eagles Fly tour will set off from London (other convoys will also be setting off from Madrid, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Vienna and Naples). The routes and instructions for participating in the event are available from the website www.whereaglesfly.com/EN

On Sunday 8th November, British riders will set off from London covering 920 miles in three legs stopping overnight at Paris, Grenoble and finally Milan. The route takes in a variety of stunning scenery including fantastic alpine passes en route to crossing the Italian border.

Different packages are available for British enthusiasts wishing to take part in the great Where Eagles Fly raid: from the comprehensive full board package, which includes accommodation and meals for both the outbound and return journeys, to bookings for the Where Eagles Fly party alone on Tuesday November 10th, during which all the news from Moto Guzzi for 2010 will be unveiled in an exclusive event, attended by key figures from the Guzzi world and with a unique exhibition of bikes from the past, present and near future. Participants will receive entry to the hospitality area on the Piaggio Group exhibition stand, a reserved garage area for parking, preview presentation of a new Moto Guzzi model, auction of vintage Guzzi motorcycles topped off by a performance from a contemporary band of Guzzi owning musicians!

For the first time ever, approximately 800 Moto Guzzi motorcycles and their owners will come together to form the Moto Guzzi logo mosaic at the EICMA venue, in a bid to create a new Guinness World Record.

Where Eagles Fly promises to be a once in a lifetime experience for Moto Guzzi owners, so reserve your place today at www.whereeaglesfly.com
