In September of last year I was able to stumble upon such a great motoring event! While over in Italy meeting my wife in Tuscany, where she runs a woman’s retreat, I spent a few days prior exploring motor valley in Italy. Starting first in Bologna (that’s for another post :)!), I was looking for events that might be happening. A few searches later and I found what was an amazing event - the Franco Mazzotti Cup! The story about the club spans back to 1926 with a group of four Italian Motorsport gentlemen and the genesis of the Mille Miglia! One such gentlemen was Franco Mazzotti an undisputed founding member of the Mille Miglia! You can read more about it here https://www.clubmillemiglia.eu/en/franco-mazzotti-cup/ The event is an unassuming collection of multi million dollar cars all set to drive from Brescia up through the Lake District spanning 2 days. Starting at a beautiful hotel on the shores of Lake Garda, it’s open to anyone who is around and you can walk among the racers, car collectors and their amazing machines!
Here are a bunch of pictures my wife and I took. It was so special to see cars you’d never see in NA! Enjoy!
