[smbc] Motogiro d'Italia 2008 Presentation

["Dan Bockmier" <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Riders,

If you care to watch a short five minute presentation depicting this 
year's Motogiro d'Italia, just click on the link below.

It was with great pleasure that I was finally able to ride in the 
Vintage class this year (pre 1958 and 175 cc or smaller), yet one 
consequence of that distinction is that there is precious little time 
for photography. Therefore this show is considerably briefer than last 
year's. I hope to follow up with a narrative as I've plenty to tell, 
including almost having to scratch just minutes before the competition 
began, riding for hours in strong cold rain atop snow capped mountains, 
plus crossing the entire country of Italy locked in second gear - and 
that was just the first day.

I hope you enjoy the show.

...and for Mac users, here is a reprocessed file version that should 
play on earlier versions of Windows Media Player. It is not as nice as 
the original but it beats the heck out of the YouTube resolution.
