If you've been wondering about all the really old Duc's and others you've seen putting in the hills the last few days.
The Giro d'California is a retrospective tribute to the Giro d'Italia Motociclistico (a.k.a. Motogiro), Italy's premier long distance motorcycle road race of the 1950's.
The Giro d'California celebrates the machines and riders from the golden era of the Motogiro, 1953-57. During this period the Motogiro was organized and promoted by the Italian sports newspaper Stadio. During the Stadio years over 50 Italian motorcycle manufacturers fielded "protagonisti" in the Motogiro.
