Hi all,

My name is Todd Nordwig and I am new to the Loopframe
list. I have been riding motorcycles on and off for 32 years,
but most recently (past 6 years) have made it my main
transportation. Since 1971, when I saw my first Moto Guzzi
(Ambassador in Madison, Wisconsin parking ramp----I
heard it before I saw it .....tapping sound), I was hooked.
I had always wanted one, but never acted on actually getting
one.......mostly for one reason. I am a moron when it
comes to working on motorcycles, and this leads me
to the reason why I am getting one now.
At the age of 50, I want to start to learn as much as I can
about motorcycles, especially Ambo/Eldo. They seem
to be more user friendly than any other marque, and
from what I have seen over the years, the comraderie
and friendliness of Moto Guzzi organizations is
unique.
The one thing I do ask of you all is that you please
be patient with me. I will probably ask some
obvious and idiotic questions......I apologize in
advance. This will be a learning experience for
me and I beg your indulgence.
I am very excited to find and ride a loopframe,and
hope I can meet some of you some day.

Thanks...

Todd
