During the Meet’N’Ride 2020 in Lessinia I made a decision that was perhaps unpopular or perhaps not so immediate to understand: I didn't make a video. I want to say that I purposely didn't record any video, I just left the camera at home.
Because I didn't make a video?
I owe a good part of my small popularity to my videos and if so many have decided to spend this year with me too a beautiful day in company on the Lessini Mountains it's precisely because they met me on my YouTube channel, look at my reviews, follow my stories. In short, it is completely normal for people to expect a video story from me and it should be normal for me to do so. Yet I didn't want to do it.
Tranquillo, I didn't go crazy. Well maybe… It's not for me to say! However there is a reason and it is very simple to tell the truth:
I wanted to enjoy every moment.
I wanted to chat, guide, breathe in the scents, taste the typical dishes, obviously the mountain gnocchi. I didn't want the camera filter. I knew, because I have a fair amount of experience with it, that the thought of the video to record, of the best shots, audio not to be missed, it would have made me lose a lot of spontaneity and in a year like this I really didn't want to give it up.
So I was selfish. And I'll tell you more: the Meet'N'Ride in Lessinia that I have been holding for five years now is done primarily for myself, I confess it.
I like spending the day with old friends and with others who clock up kilometers to come and take a motorbike ride with me. And who consequently become great friends. Furthermore, it seems respectful to me to dedicate my full attention to them.
Fortunately, however,, he was there with me Filippo. I hired him not only because he is a friend with whom I like to travel, but because he is a good photographer. I therefore entrusted him with the task of taking photos for everyone as a gift to give to the participants. So you too can take a peek with this gallery at what happened at the Meet'N'Ride Lessinia 2020 and maybe you'll want to join us on the next round. To choose which one I recommend you visit the section Come on a motorcycle with me.
In addition to Filippo and all the defendants, I have to give special thanks to the guys at Moto Club Eat Sleep Ride who helped me on the routes and in keeping the group together safely. Without them this tour would not have been possible.
A huge hug, at last, ad Enrico e a Naomi. Two super exceptional weights, both having their first experience of the genre and both superlative. They didn't miss a meter, they savored everything and I sincerely hope that they will cherish the memory of this weekend over time.
