Having lived on Long Island for 46 years, I must say you are a brave man to drive your spider on the LIE!

congrats
Congratulations on the milestone! I was out in the Hamptons two weeks ago. Thought I might see you on the road. Lots of Aston Martins, Bentleys and Ferraris... but not one Alfa. The neighborhood is going to pot!

Will you be at Stonybrook Univ. for the Concorso? If so... let's say hello.

If you ever drove on the LIE on a Friday afternoon in the summer, you would know that 17 MPH would be making real progress.
