Hägar

viene anche lei ad adria con il riga? ad adria la situazione comincia a farsi interessante.
pilotesse con balcone, crocerossine in costume svedese. e siamo ancora in gennaio, quando comincera' a scaldarsi l'aria non voglio pensare a cosa saltera' fuori.

hi,

Yes its my Riga.
I am not sure if I can bring it to Adria ,we will see.

I think there are around 12 Riga's left in the world.
And only 2 of them are still raced.

Ciao, sì è la mia Riga.
Non sono sicuro se la potrò portare ad Adria, vedremo.

Penso che ci siano circa 12 Riga rimaste nel mondo.
E solo 2 di loro sono ancora fatte correre.
