Raid Norge 2011, Moto Guzzi at the North Cape

To celebrate the 90th birthday Moto Guzzi will reach the North Cape and for the occasion Volvo could not miss it and contributed to the adventure of the Italian motorcycle manufacturer by providing a Volvo XC60 as a support car that left together with twenty Guzzi motorbikes from Mandello di Lario, the historic headquarters of Moto Guzzi. The caravan which will travel a legendary route of almost 5.000 km left on 11 July and will arrive in North Cape in about ten days. Among the motorbikes that make up the fleet there are models Norge GT8V, Stelvio NTX e V7 Classic.

Norway with its expanses between the sea and the mountains is one of the most loved destinations by motorcyclists and two-wheel enthusiasts from all over the world. Furthermore, for Moto Guzzi this country also has a particular symbolic and emotional value which makes motorbike crossings on Norwegian soil always something unique. It was at the North Cape that Giuseppe Guzzi way back in 1928 he arrived riding the Norge GT 50. The House of the Eagle has already planned, again in Norway, a three-day event full of initiatives, parties and enthusiasm for all the fans. Certainly the link between Norway and Moto Guzzi is double-stranded.
