Che’s Model 18

I’d Rather Been Riding has an interesting improvisational post on Che Guevara’s famous motorcycle trek popularized in the Motorcycle Diaries. It's been years since I saw the movie and somehow I didn't recall the trip was made on a 1939 Norton Model 18. Perhaps my recently Norton obsession has heightened my awareness.
