Our goal is to offer an
authentic Italian slice of life. We seek to get people from all over
the world to experience how much fun can be had in Italy on motorcycles.
Our recipe is simple but at
the same time difficult to accomplish. A small number of participants, well
balanced itineraries between riding and experiencing, a never ending
interest in seeking out the hidden treasures of our land, seeking
authenticity rather than overrated sophistication, true companionship rather
than simple customer service. We don't want you to feel like clients, but as
our guests and friends.
Our tours should be a full
immersion in Italy. You'll be exposed to all of Italy. Starting from its
climate, its perfumes, its driving and social habits, its food and culture.
We'll support you along the way making sure everything runs smoothly and
that you make the most out of your trip.
Who is Francesco?
born in 1970 in Lafayette
(Indiana - USA) from Italian father and English mother he grew up in Rome
(Italy) until he finished high school. He then moved to the UK to complete
his studies in Economics and made his first professional experiences in
Sales and Marketing before returning to Italy in 1998. After 3 years working
in the film industry he decided to start CIMT in 2001 and has been doing
this ever since.
Francesco is bilingual in English and Italian, has good knowledge of German
and basic knowledge of Spanish and French.
His motorcycle riding career starts in 1983 when his father bought a 50cc
scooter to be ridden around the countryside. In 1987 he bought his first
125cc dirt bike, an Italian Aspes Hopi 125RGEL from 1976, and after that he
borrowed his brother's Gilera 200cc. Only in 1996 he entered the world of
big bikes buying a 4 cylinder Kawasaki 600 which he still owns and rides
occasionally. Since 2002 it has been a progression and succession of bikes.
He now really enjoys riding his Moto Guzzi V85TT on tours, and the Royal
Enfield Himalayan on dirt roads.
