Where the road turns

A Ducati is not made to go straight. So I took my 907 -- recently bought in Switzerland -- and went to the Vallée de Chevreuse, but not without having stopped at the swimming pool, because physical exercise is good for the nerves ! The second part of the afternoon was hot and bright, but some clouds did announced a big storm for the evening. Between Saclay (a well known scientific university) and Chevreuse, it's not the Alps, but it's not so far... And there are some bends, well! only some, so you'd better to ride there and back at less twice to feel the beginning of the bend-drunkness (hum, what a neologism! ). The problem on our roads is cops. We did'nt find the way to suppress them discreetly. May be the next revolution will bring the answer. But to day there were NOT cops. So you were not a suspect of terrorism by going there and back in the valley. The fact is that this region is well known for their rich inhabitants, and this sort of people must be protected, of course... All day long without cops... In France ! Even in the swimming pool ! Rare and precious feeling of freedom !
Coming back to Paris was a pleasure full of melancholy, so I was more gentle with the right handle -- no more than 180km/h. The 907 runs very well, and the Pegaso's coolant reservoir works as it has to do.
Greetings to you guys and girls -- but are there girls on this website ?
