This is Benjamin – Min to friends and fans – Grau at the 1975 24 Horas race.Ducati had a long history of successes racing singles at Monjuich Park and entered the new V-twin in 1973 ridden by Grau and Salvador Canellas - and scored a debut victory! The '73 bike used the '73 750 Imola's 86mm bore cylinders together with the standard stroke for a capacity of 864cc. The 750's 60 degree heads and dry clutch were also used. In 1974 a gearbox problem caused the same pairing to retire while in the lead after 16 hours but they won again the following year, beating the Godier Genoud Kawasaki by 13 laps. New, narrower sand-cast crankcases perched in a lightweight Daspa frame, and capacity was raised to 905cc to give 96bhp at 9,000rpm. Grau and Virginio Ferrari also won the 1000km race at Mugello that year.

Grau’s critics might point to the fact that he entered more races at Montjuich Park than any other rider, so of course he has the most wins. But then Montjuich Park also hosted world championship Grands Prix, so the names that slip in above him visited just once a year — names that included Stanley Woods, Tarquinio Provini, Carlo Ubbiali, Bill Ivy... and Phil Read. Phil's name deserves highlighting because he's the only rider, beside Grau, that I can recall winning a 24 hour endurance event as well as a 125 world championship race. For Grau hasn't just won the 24 Horas at Montjuich Park, aboard a 905cc Ducati bevel twin, a 1980s 748cc TTI, and even a Bultaco 360cc two-stroke: in 1974, when Montjuich Park still hosted the Spanish Grand Prix, Derbi found him a 125, just like multiple world champion Angel Nieto's bike. Grau won.

Kenny Roberts vs. Barry Sheene: Legendary Duel In the late 70 s, Silverstone was the theatre of one of the most beautiful Motorcycling duels, among two of the most beloved riders in history.It's 1979, during the weekend that also marks the debut of the legendary (but uncompetitive) NR 500 oval pistons, led by Katayama and Grant. Two races until the end of the championship and King Kenny is leading the World Cup, ahead of Virginio Ferrari and Barry Sheene. The English driver, even though math still keeps him in the game, knows that by now a miracle wouldn't be enough for the title, but he's set to give 100 % to win at home in front of his fans: Roberts scores one Amazing pole, Sheene makes up for more than a second and a half late. The motorcycle doesn't allow him to force into the fast curves of Silverstone, where the American rival can make a difference. But at the end of qualifying, Roberts, despite the superiority shown on the track, is convinced that Sheene will fight for the win - it may seem a long shot statement, but Kenny is right. After leaving, the American flies over the lead, heeled by Will Hartog and Barry himself, and attempts to escape: he pushes hard, risking much especially in the fastest Abbey corner, where he is the only one who can face it fourth-full corner. After three rounds of hell, however, he realizes that Sheene, thanks to breathtaking disconnects and risks beyond normal, managed to stay with him: he drops the pace and understands that escape is not possible, Barry won't let go to the finish line. The two start an incredible battle, in the fast tracts Roberts put himself in the lead, but in the brake, Sheene puts him back: after another overtake and counter-absorption, leaving Copse, the Englishman turns around and shows him ′′ two fingers to v ", that the British usually interpret as some sort of ′′ fuck you ". The audience goes crazy, Silverstone becomes a bolgia, but Kenny doesn't get swayed and keeps cold blooded. At the start of the last lap he gets back in his head and, accomplice a dubbed, seems to be able to earn enough to avoid a rival's attack: it seems, because Barry takes half a second in a few turns and the two reach the finish line practically glued. 30 Millesimi separates Barry Sheene from winning the home GP, which he'd never managed to get; he'd never been this close to Silverstone, and unfortunately he'll never get on the top step of the podium in England. At the end of the race, when they reach the pits, the two shake hands, and Sheene is happy, she really did the best, she has nothing to recriminate.′′ Of course he was happy, how could he not be? He really gave his all. There wasn't one defeated that day, if you come this close, there are no losers ′′ Roberts will say in an interview years later.A respect and a struggle of other times, on a track, Silverstone's, very different, faster and even much more dangerous than today. A race of heart and pride in which, as King Kenny says, were not defeated, but two true gladiators.

Trip to Bridgeport

In the second week of Chicago excursions I was assigned to explore the neighborhood of Bridgeport.  Bridgeport is located in the city’s south side, the neighborhood is confined to the north by the south branch of the Chicago river stretching south to Pershing Road.  Laterally the neighborhood spans from the Union Pacific Railroad tracks in the east, to Bubbly Creek in the west.  Bridgeport possesses the title as the oldest neighborhood in the city of Chicago, officially becoming Bridgeport Township in 1863.  The history of Bridgeport and what survives today projects different stories about the neighborhood.  Originally an Irish enclave of industry, Bridgeport today is ethnically diverse with many varying socioeconomic levels residing in the neighborhood.  

Map of Bridgeport 

Industry began to boom in Bridgeport around 1830 when Stearns’ Quarry established a limestone quarry, dynamiting in the neighborhood until 1969 (Bloom, 2020).  Industrialization swallowed the area, by 1905 the first privately owned and managed industrial park was established, called the Central Manufacturing District.  The owners of the park invested into the neighborhood, building roads, public emergency services, a bank, and even leisure businesses.  The demographic composed today in Bridgeport one will find around two of five residents being Asian, and one of five residents being of Hispanic dissent (Statistical Atlas, 2020).  Immigrants from the old world flooded Bridgeport in aims for a working job.  The Irish flooded the neighborhood first, soon to follow were northern and eastern European immigrants.  Important to the neighborhood during the beginning of the 20th century was the railroad construction nearby (Bloom, 2020).  Many of the workers who recently migrated were Mexican, who established homes in the neighborhood (Bloom, 2020). The remainder of the 20th century and leading to modern day, Bridgeport witnessed many Asian immigrants moving to the area.  Being within close proximity to the city’s long-standing, well-established Chinatown district.  Also residing near the historic district of Bronzeville, the population consists of African American and Hispanic dwellers.  

What was once a booming sector of industry, today Bridgeport is now a cultural center for art and diversity.  The neighborhood although slightly large on scale, is entitled to a strong sense of community.  This strong sense of community may be one such production of the deeply rooted religious structures seen very visibly throughout the neighborhood.  Apparent to the neighborhood is its nonsecular nature, with many ornate and magnificent churches.  Also clearly apparent in Bridgeport, is the neighborhood’s lust for art, specifically modern, urban art;  two art centers stand just a stone’s throw apart from one another.  To note as well is the neighborhood repurposing efforts to transition areas of industry into public spaces.  Many parks are scattered throughout Bridgeport today.  On my visit to the neighborhood I was able to explore one of these parks, also I witnessed a few churches, and was able to tour the neighborhood’s art center.  

During the Friday excursion of the neighborhood, I began my day at the Bridgeport Art Center.  The art center is located on 35th Street, at 1200 West 35th Street, in the central manufacturing district; once the location for the Spiegel Catalog warehouse.  Established in 2001, the Bridgeport Art Center is focused to continuously serve as a resource for creative minds, and to be the beacon for the innovating Chicago art scene (Bridgeport Art Center, 2020).  The art center is home to numerous artists, designers, and working professionals.  Incredibly, I was fortunate enough and one of the first to attend the art center on the same day of its 4th Floor Gallery opening reception.  The gallery’s newest theme entitled ‘Where’s the Revolution,’ is an exhibition featuring political art expressing varying points of view of global politics and social justice standards (Bridgeport Art Center, 2020).  The exhibits displayed depict themes current to modern issues in America.  At the forefront of the exhibits were criticisms of the current presidency, as well as the extremely salient movement of Black Lives Matter.  In one work the artist depicts the final words of George Floyd, “I can’t breathe.”  The artistic piece utilizes yarn on canvas to depict the final words, in the artist’s own words, “lives holding by a thread.”  Many of the artistic works also present an underlying theme of police brutality targeted against racial minorities.  

I Can’t Breathe by Pinar Aral 

Floyd by Victoria Goite 

Although the 4th Floor Gallery was fascinating to explore and witness, I was able to meet and discuss with internationally acclaimed Italian sculptor, Virginio Ferrari.  During my walkthrough of the 4th Floor Gallery I was confronted by a waste management consultant who worked in the building.  He thought it would be an advantageous opportunity to meet and have a dialogue with Ferrari.  I agreed to his opportunity and he escorted me to Ferrari’s work space in the basement of the building.  

Virginio Ferrari’s Workshop in Bridgeport Art Center 

I had the ability to have a personal tour of Ferrari’s shop by the man himself.  He discussed his life story and beginnings of his artistic career.  Mentored by his father and grandfather in the trade of stone cutting, Ferrari learned respect for the craft, and has continued his family’s legacy since.  Ferrari is an immigrant of Italy who migrated to Chicago in the 1960s.  After his migration to Chicago, Ferrari would serve for one decade as the Assistant Professor of Art and Sculptor in Residence, at the prestigious University of Chicago (Ferrari, 2020).  Ferrari has thirty monumental pieces alone in Chicago, and other works can be witnessed all over the world, with sculptures located in Europe, Asia, and throughout the continental United States.  Some of his most notable works found in Chicago include the Being Born exhibition near the Ohio Feeder Ramp in Riverside North, as well as the controversial exhibit Dialogo, which casts a shadow annually on May Day that depicts the Communist sickle and hammer (Ferrari, 2020).  Even at the age of eighty-three year, Ferrari is still active with his craftsmanship, constantly creating new sculptures in his Bridgeport workspace.  

Being Born by Virginio Ferrari

Although the opportunity to meet the world renowned sculptor, Virginio Ferrari, was incredibly exciting, there was still more to see of the neighborhood.  After my visit to the Bridgeport Art Center, I continued my morning walkthrough of Bridgeport by viewing a couple of churches located in near proximity.  The first church I was able to visit was the Roman Catholic Church of St. Mary of Perpetual Help.  This church has been standing in Bridgeport since 1882 (St. Mary of Perpetual Help Church, 2020).  Its establishment was influenced by the growing Polish immigrant population in the area.  It served as a community home for these Polish immigrants, and still serves today as the parish for the Catholic girl high school, De La Salle Institute.  The building itself is magnificent with elaborate towers and a colossal dome, with intricate detailing found all over the building.  

St. Mary of Perpetual Help Church, 1039 West 32nd Street 

After my walk by the St. Mary Church, I was able to see the Monastery of the Holy Cross.  This monastery was established a century later than the previous parish discussed, in 1988.  Although the monastery was established in 1988, the building in which the monastery resides was once the home of a Polish parish, the Immaculate Conception Church (Monastery of the Holy Cross, 2020). The Monastery of the Holy Cross was founded by three missionary priests who sought out to combat the challenges of evangelization in the modern world (Monastery of the Holy Cross, 2020). The priest's mission was evangelization of the modern ‘desert’ of the city, which faces issues of violence, alienation, and spiritual poverty (Monastery of the Holy Cross, 2020).  To comment on the building, the monastery is found at the location of the former Immaculate Conception church.  The building although simple in design, with a only singular vertical turret attached, is known for its beauty.  The sheer height of the tower was quite remarkable to witness in person.  

Monastery of the Holy Cross, 3111 South Aberdeen Street

As the end of my trip neared, I decided to visit one of the local parks in the neighborhood.  Located at 2700 South Halsted Street, in the heart of the Bridgeport neighborhood, I was able to visit the Palmisano Park and Quarry.  Prior to the park, the area was most well known for the Stearns’ Quarry, in which massive amounts of limestone were extracted from the earth.  This twenty-six acre site offers a bountiful amount of activities for visitors to enjoy.  The park includes a fishing pond, interpretive wetlands, preserved quarry walls, trails, an athletic field, a running track, and over one and a half miles of walking trails (Chicago Park District, 2020).  The park itself was  gorgeous to walk around.  It provided an incredible view of the Chicago skyline, and most notably preserves the land of the neighborhood.  This park was very refreshing to experience.  Being in the city can be overwhelming with the lack of green space, but the Palmisano Park adds a much needed escape from the urban environment.  It is hard to imagine, but the natural landscape of Chicago is composed of a marsh, and this is made very apparent through the park.  Tall grasses and a pond were just two obvious features of the park displaying marsh characteristics.  It was a pleasant surprise to discover this park.  Even though I have been living in the area for two years now, it was exciting to explore a new green space in close relation to my university.

Looking back on my trip to Bridgeport, the neighborhood is a multicultural enclave in a new emerging art scene.  The oldest neighborhood of the city of Chicago surprised me with its numerous cultural identities.  Initially founded by mainly Irish immigrants, the neighborhood has transformed its identity through the inclusion of other minorities.  Immigrants from Mexico and Asia have built a new home for themselves in the neighborhood.  The city in its past has been considered segregated, but this was not the impression I felt during my visit to the neighborhood.  Bridgeport if anything, is a hub of acceptance and integration, consisting of many varying cultural and ethnic backgrounds.  Made apparent by the religious institutions littered around the neighborhood, Bridgeport is a melting pot of culture, history, and art.  Some individuals debate whether or not Bridgeport is the next ‘hipster’ neighborhood.  I think that Bridgeport has the potential to grow to be this hipster hub.  With two art centers already established in the neighborhood, along with a collection of unique restaurants, and public spaces for neighborhood residents to enjoy; Bridgeport, although the oldest neighborhood, is still transforming and staying up-to-date with cultural and social activities.  I would recommend any visitor of Chicago to explore Bridgeport.  As illustrated previously throughout this post, the neighborhood is compiled of varying commercial, religious, residential, and public spaces.  Also home to the Chicago White Sox, the neighborhood offers plenty of activities for visitors to expierence.  Bridgeport is a neighborhood of detailed and extensive history, but it is still transforming to serve the needs of its people.

¿Alguna vez te has preguntado cómo destruir una carrera que has dedicado tu vida a edificar, en cuestión de unos segundos de furia? http://investment.pe.hu/story.php?title=solicitar-en-linea-motorismo-regalos#discuss hasta el taller en el caso de avería mecánica. Hola que tal soy de tucuman, estoy en la busca de lista de precios y de los productos que tienen libres y cual es la adquisición minima. Con el paso de los años, las carreras en carreteras abiertas comenzaron a ser un auténtico riesgo para los conductores, por lo que se decidió crear los primeros circuitos cerrados, como los que se emplean hoy día para cobijar competiciones de motor. Mallol estrenaba en la Línea una Harley-Davidson comprada de manera directa a Giuseppe Pattoni Recuerdo que la motocicleta que me vendió era la que empleó Virginio Ferrari, tenía una buena amistad con Pattoni al que siempre que veía le agasajaba con una caja de coñac, que curiosamente era Creador, que le volvía loco” , con la que realizó una excepcional carrera, todo y haber tenido una mala salida producto de una bujía aceitada que le hizo partir desde la última posición, tras adelantar a prácticamente todos los pilotos finalizó en una increíble tercera plaza una carrera ganada por un incontrovertible Palomo beneficiado por el abandono de Grau por rotura de su Derbi. Si quieres saber qué etiqueta le corresponde a tu moto ciclomotor, puedes consultarlo en la web de la DGT Si además deseas ser pionero y poner el propio en tu motocicleta, tendrás que aproximarte a una oficina de correos y abonar cinco euros por la etiqueta medioambiental. Necesito asesoramiento deseo abrir una casa de repuestos para motos y quiero saber aproximadamente que inversión hay que hacer para un negocio de esas peculiaridades. Es suficiente con aguardar 3 años tras la obtención del permiso B», explica. Concretamente, se han catalogado los ciclomotores de dos ruedas de tres ruedas, cuadriciclos ligeros, motocicletas de dos ruedas y motocicletas con sidecar. La actuación de los Ocupantes del vehículo asegurado causantes de un accidente de circulación, siempre y Link importante cuando viajen a título gratis y con el consentimiento del Conductor autorizado del vehículo asegurado al contratar tu Seguro Moto. Anteriormente, si una carrera comenzaba en condiciones secas y empezaba a llover, los pilotos y los comisarios de carrera podían parar la carrera (mediante una bandera roja), cambiar de manera rápida los neumáticos y volver a dar la salida para disputar el resto de vueltas. Era este uno de los punteros del motociclismo andaluz de entonces, recuerdo especialmente a Paco García Romero, y allí conocí asimismo a Juan Alvarez, más tarde directos del Circuito de Jerez y presidente de la RFME. De forma similar a los motores monofásicos, los motores trifásicos consiguen un campo magnético giratorio. Agárrate fuerte y pisa a fondo el acelerador para ganar todas las carreras de sillas de ruedas eléctricas de este juego de motocicletas. Tras una ausencia de diez años, Honda re-ingresó el Torneo Mundial y Castrol debió participar en el desarrollo de una de las motos más influyentes de los últimos tiempos: la increíble Honda NR500 oval a pistones de ocho válvulas. Los gobernantes de las ciudades con pero indice de carreras ilegales deberá edificar un espacio donde hagan carrera legales y sin daños económicos, si se prosiguen dando las carreras ilegales lo que debería hacer el estado es reforzar la seguridad y vigilancia. https://slashdot.org/submission/9098114/la-polica-local-inmoviliza-103-ciclomotores-en-2\ Aceites de Motor Originales Toyota (TGMO) forman parte de la línea de Recambios Originales Toyota. Una de dichas celebridades fue Scorpus, que ganó cerca de 2000 carreras antes de fallecer, a los 27 años, en una colisión. Ampliación del seguro de accidentes corporales a los accidentes de circulación sufridos por el Tomador, Conductor por el Asegurado en otros automóviles terrestres, como pasajero de servicios públicos de transporte terrestre como peatón. En 750cc, Mallol salió disparado como un rayo encabezando la prueba desde el comienzo, sin embargo un par de curvas mas tarde bien por precipitación, bien por que los neumáticos no estuvieran en temperatura cayó siendo excedido por todos y cada uno de los pilotos, no obstante prosiguió compitiendo hasta la 11ª vuelta en que se retiró. Buen día en cuanto me sale un motor doscientos cincuenta kawasaki 1991 eliminaitor completo ya ke el mio se deabielo sria a México al cp02020. Número de motores: Se permiten un máximo de ocho motores por conduzco durante toda la temporada. Las 2T han de ser motos fabricadas entre los años 1945 a mil novecientos setenta y dos, no pudiendo ser de origen nipón. El juego oficial basado en la mayor competición de motocross del mundo. El origen de todo es la limitación de velocidad a cuarenta y cinco kilómetros por hora, un límite que estos vehículos superan extensamente y que tienen que respetar para pasar la ITV. Como el libro editado por Castrol que nos transporta a todos a los campeonatos del año mil novecientos cincuenta y cinco con crónicas de cada carrera, como el quinto Campeonato del Planeta sucesivo que consiguió Geoff Duke sobre su moto Gilera, rodando, además de esto en el TT a una media de 161 kmh. Dichas carreras pueden perdurar desde pocos segundos minutos, como es el caso de los arrancones , las carreras de motocross y óvalos de tierra; hasta múltiples horas días, como en las carreras de resistencia y el rally raid En cambio, el trial consiste en pasar una serie de obstáculos en un determinado tiempo sin cometer faltas; y en el motociclismo estilo libre donde se efectúan acrobacias en el aire a fin de que el jurado dé la mayor cantidad de puntos. Las carreras de carros no eran tan reputadas como el stadion (la carrera a pie), pero eran más importantes que otros acontecimientos hípicos, tales como las carreras a caballo, que fueron eliminadas pronto de los Olimpiadas En los tiempos micénicos , el participante de la carrera y el dueño podrían haber sido la misma persona y, por ende, el participante era quien ganaba el premio. Muchos residentes viajan en motocicletas y ciclomotores. No existen dos motoristas iguales y cada uno de ellos tiene diferentes necesidades de seguridad personal y de cuidado de la moto. Nuestra asociación histórica con los fabricantes de motos y el aprovechamiento de las carreras de motocicleta de alto nivel como terreno propicio de prueba constituye una parte esencial de desarrollo de productos de enorme calidad, tanto para los pilotos de competición como para los aficionados de todo el mundo. Algunos de estos automóviles pueden estar sujetos a autorización expresa de la compañía, como en el caso de vehículos con potencias elevadas, superiores a 100 ciento veinte cv, dependiendo de su tipo y modelo. Como en el caso de la Hanway Raw cincuenta, sus elementos son muy sencillos, comenzando por el chasis tipo simple cuna, las suspensiones usuales con pareja de amortiguadores detrás el modesto freno de tambor trasero. Una que llama la atención es la Derbi de cincuenta c.c. que conquistó los Mundiales de motociclismo de los años 1969, 1970 y mil novecientos setenta y dos. Para motocicletas de agua, yates, veleros y embarcaciones motorizadas, Mécacyl es la herramienta imprescindible para limitar el desgaste y la oxidación de los materiales, al unísono que deja conseguir un mejor rendimiento y por lo tanto más par, potencia y revoluciones.

The #MaseratiIndy was bold and brash where previous four-seat Masers had been subdued and sublime. But then, if you were aiming at the Lamborghini Espada, you’d swing for the fences too. Ferruccio Lamborghini’s company was started to one-up Enzo Ferrari, but the first Lambos, the 350 and 400GT, were aimed just as much at Maserati. The Trident responded, slowly at first. It’s Quattroporte stood alone and it had two rather nice four-seaters, the aging 6-cylinder Sebring, descended from the 50s 3500GT, and the new but conservative V8 Mexico. When the Espada broke cover in early 1968, an emergency program began to replace the Sebring with a four-seat derivative of the exciting V8 Ghibli. This car became the Indy in 1969. When Lamborghini created the Espada, it drew inspiration from a pair of Bertone style exercises, Marcello Gandini’s Marzal and Pirana. Maserati, with less loyalty to a single style house, shopped around too. Ghia and Vignale both competed for the car, with Ghia’s entry being the Simun concept car, styled by Giorgetto Giugiaro. Giugiaro had created the gorgeous Ghibli only two years earlier, but was soon to depart Ghia. Vignale’s design boss Virginio Vairo took a personal interest, and his winning entry was his own work, with help from his right hand Elio Mainardi. Vairo had also designed the Mexico, the rather formal-looking successor to the very exotic 5000GT. Both ideas were shown at the 1968 Turin show, six months after the Espada dropped. In the end the Indy had some of the Simun’s elements too, but Vairo’s ideas can also be seen in his later Fiat Samantha and his contemporary proposal for a redesigned Matra M530. The hardware for the Indy largely came from the Ghibli, but it was a conventional unibody where the Ghibli was a tube-frame design. The basic Maser four-cam V8 continued, and in the Indy would get 4.2, 4.7, and 4.9L versions, though they ran a wet sump, saving money and complexity from the Ghibli. The name celebrated the trident’s then long-ago Indy 500 wins, a not-so-subtle reminder that Maserati had actual racing pedigree while Lamborghini didn’t. A kind of Ghibli-lite, the Indy sold well for Maserati, with 1,104 made. https://www.instagram.com/p/CLmx8GLFcH4/?igshid=qezi4461aeuz
