SonjaM meets Rocci

Last Week I happened to bump into Rocci who was at the Urban Wasp Charity BBQ. I hadn't seen her for a while and she had not been riding for a year or so because of a back ailment. In years past we had ridden together to scooter rallies in Victoria and Kelowna, and also day rides to the Sunshine Coast and the Coquihalla Tunnels in Hope, BC (click here)

Rocci has a Vespa as well as a Motoguzzi for long distance. She has been working out of town and has now moved back to Vancouver. I thought that it would be a good time for Rocci to meet Sonja. It was my idea to have a group breakfast last Saturday



It was not our usual eatery but we managed to find a table and squeeze into tight quarters. Paul, our insurance guy (pointing on the left) was on his Concours, Roland (Mrs SonjaM) on his Vespa GTS, SonjaM on her Vespa GT



and Rocci on her Vespa GT



With riding being the common bond it is like meeting an old friend, even though you had just met



It was nice to see Rocci and glad she has returned to the riding scene. She is getting her "Guzzi ready for the road after being stored for two seasons and she is anxious to do some serious riding soon



I posted a photo of Rocci's MotoGuzzi HERE, it's the 2nd photo . It was taken at the Cascade Lookout, Manning Park, BC whilst on our way to Kelowna in 2008
