Hi massimo. Thanks for posting, great work. I'll be in Italy, Tuscany area, in a few weeks time for the Mugello MotoGP. How hard is it to hire AI's / TI's in Italy ?

Oh, in my experience, very hard. Last year, before buying one, we tried to find one to hire. We didn't find any!

Actually Tuscany, along with Liguria and northern lakes are the areas we usually go for vacations - so we did search there, but no luck.

If you happen to drive around a bit after MotoGP, Bolsena lake is about 200 km away and there's the official Hobie seller Bolsena Yachting -where we bought ours. They usually have one to test, maybe also to hire.
Etruscan sites and pretty Argentario not too far - great food all over the place, might be worth visiting. :wink:

If you'd like more info, feel free to ask, if we know or can find out - no problem!

p.s. glad to hear you and NOHUHU liked the video.!

If I EVER make it to Tuscany (like all my damn friends) :cry: , the LAST thing I'm going to do is hop on a Hobie!

No time. Far too much eating, drinking and oogling to be done! :mrgreen:

8) You deviate NOHUHU. 8) :lol:

Casey Stoner has asked me to ride in his place next year, so I thought I’d go over and get some pointers. :roll: In fact he's retiring to, guess where, good old Lake Macquarie. He bought a place about just around the point from us, so looks like we’ll be carving up the Lake on AI’s in the future.

Thanks Massimo. I think I have most of the info I need. Got my tickets and accommodation. Where abouts do you live ? So looking forward to it. Go Casey.

I'll betcha no-one from the U.S. knows who Casey Stoner is. Hell, I'll bet they don't even know who Eddie Lawson is and he's one of theirs.

Couple of us might remember Eddie, but more (at least here on west coast) would remember Kenny R.
Luckily, we're not all baseball, and "football"
