Greetings, Moto Guzzi friends. I hope you had a very merry Christmas and that your 2026 is off to a good start. As you probably remember, we’re holding two Central Virginia Moto Guzzi lunches this year, one on the 2nd Saturday, so that I can attend before shipping off to Romania, and another on the 3rd Saturday, as usual. This is the invitation for the first of these lunches.
Last February we held the lunch at Napoli’s Italian Restaurant in Rustburg, VA. The food was good, the prices reasonable, the location convenient (for those of us living near Lynchburg), and the restaurant was fairly empty. That’s the way it’s been every time we’ve eaten there, so let’s pay them another visit.
Here’s the data:
Date and time: Saturday, 1/10/2026
Restaurant: Napoli’s Italian Restaurant
Address: 486 Village Highway, Rustburg, VA 24588 (Village Highway is the same as Route 24.)
Phone:
434-332-3677.
If you need to contact me, my email address is
mjon...@yahoo.com. My cellphone is
(434)-333-8333, though I’m still prone to ignoring it. As always, all brands are welcome, as are non-motorcycle modes of transit and people from outside the central Virginia area, so long as they don’t mind talking about motorcycles for an hour or two. We’ll meet rain, snow, sleet, or hail. :-)
Ride safe,
Mike

"Human reason has this peculiar fate that in one species of its knowledge it is burdened by questions which, as prescribed by the very nature of reason itself, it is not able to ignore, but which, as transcending all its powers, it is also not able to answer." -Immanuel Kant
