Mario, our hotel host, also organised a boat trip around Lake Como, taking along some bubbly and canapés to enrich the experience. We learned of the great and good who had visited the many spectacular lakeside villas, including Eisenhower and Churchill, as well as seeing holiday homes of the Heinz family, Richard Branson and others, all exquisitely manicured.
The thousands of bikes in Lugano, from all over Europe and beyond, covered the range of models, except that everyone personalises their bike to greater or lesser extent, so no two are ever the same. In addition, there were the radically customised bikes, based on Harleys and more often than not designed and built by custom shops for those with deep pockets, a potent mix of imagination, creative design, engineering, fabrication and airbrushed paintwork.
