MAY 11-14 2023 COPPA DELLA PERUGINA

In the variegated universe of vintage car meetings, it is nice to find the resistant action of a “hard core” who enhances the world of historic and classic cars. This is the case of CAMEP (Club Auto Moto Epoca Perugino) and its best-known event, the Coppa della Perugina, which I attended last weekend.

The not very encouraging weather forecast convinced me to reach Perugia on board my Aston Martin DB6. Four hundred kilometers traveled without haste, and here I am at the CDP Dealership for the usual welcome. After the briefing, the snake of 104 cars – numerous rare and highly prized specimens – reached the Autodromo dell’Umbria, in Magione. A few laps on the track and return to the city for the Japanese theatrical show in the hermetic Konparu style.

The second day was particularly effervescent, which began with the tour of the Lamborghini Estate, a place to which the founder Ferruccio was very attached, and continued in the direction of Cortona, a splendid village that the guided tour made even more fascinating. Having reached Solomeo, the fiefdom of the entrepreneur Brunello Cucinelli, we visited the Castello di Solomeo winery and dined in the elegant company dining hall.

Saturday in medieval style, with a morning visit to the castle of Solfagnano and Sansepolcro, with its wonderful paintings by Piero della Francesca. During the journey I allowed myself an unscheduled visit to the extraordinary Burri Collection in the former tobacco dryers at Città di Castello. Return to Perugia for the parade in Corso Vannucci, with the colorful touch of the students of the Di Betto Artistic High School dressed in vintage style (during the gala dinner at the castle of Rosciano I also won one of their paintings, which will find space in my Blue Room).

The last day opened with a visit to the Perugina factory and its Chocolate Museum; then, the thirty pre-war participants recalled the historic Coppa della Perugina route. Afterwards, return to Perugia for the static exhibition of the cars in San Francesco al Prato, visit of the Museum of the Academy of Fine Arts and awards of the regularity tests.

It was an intense four days, full of art, beauty, encounters and food and wine delights. A round of applause to CAMEP and its president, Ugo Amodeo, who once again gave us one of the most pleasant and best organized gatherings in Italy.

2021 sept 4/5  – 2a COPPA DELLA GARISENDA

Weekend between Emilia and Tuscany for the second edition of the Garisenda Cup, organized by the Bologna Autostoriche Club.

The route made us rediscover suggestive landscapes: after arriving in Loiano, on the Bolognese hills, on Friday evening, we restarted our engines on Saturday to reach Chianti crossing the Raticosa and Futa passes, up to the magical Monteriggioni, where we dined within the walls of the fortress. But the highlight was the next morning, with the arrival in Siena and the passage in Piazza del Campo. Then, guests of the Contrada della Chiocciola, we visited the museum of the same name and had lunch in the headquarters of the Selva, Contrada allied.

Excellent organization, festive and informal atmosphere; convincing the performance of my Aston Martin DB6, which covered over 700 kilometers in less than two days without any effort.

2020  9/11 october WHEN THE 500 MIGLIA CALLS …

“Passion and territory” is the slogan of the 500 Miglia Touring, and there was certainly no lack of it in the three days of the event. Last weekend’s rally gathered 40 cars in the central Piazza Vittoria in Brescia, to then take them to some of the most beautiful places in northeastern Italy.

From the holiday views of the Brescia side of Lake Garda to Riva, and then up again to Bolzano and Merano; return via Ponte di Legno and stop in Monte Isola; final award ceremony on Sunday afternoon in Piazza Paolo VI in Brescia. Territory in abundance, therefore, and pure food and wine specialties; but above all the passion expressed by the participants, who, aboard their beloved classics, plus some contemporary supercars, accepted the invitation of the owner Giovanni Riva to the twenty-first edition of the event.

I too could not fail to, and again took my Aston Martin DB6 out of the garage, this time flanked by the agile Austin Healey 3000 MK1 RHD driven by a friend. In this way I was able to spend a pleasant weekend reviewing some places of my heart in the company of old and new friends, like me “sick” of four-wheeled collecting.

2019 3/5 May.  MY VERY FIRST COPPA DELLA PERUGINA

Dazzling historical cars, but also encounters with the Umbrian landscape, cultural and gastronomic beauties: it is the Coppa della Perugina, “the sweetest of historical re-enactments”, to which I took part for the first time in recent days. For the occasion, I removed the Aston Martin DB6 bodywork Touring Superleggera from my private garage, an unparalleled vehicle for convenience and reliability.

Three days in the green Umbria brought us to the most beautiful places in the Perugia area. We paraded on the shores of Lake Trasimeno, visiting Castiglione del Lago, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. We had fun riding without competitive ambitions on the Magione racetrack. Once in Orvieto, a guide led us along the streets of the historic center, illustrating in detail all the beauties of the city, from the famous gothic style cathedral up to the stigmatic St. Patrick’s well, then having lunch in the dungeons of the nearby Castle of Titignano.

We couldn’t miss the tour to the Perugina Museum, where a maître chocolatier entertained us with a cooking show on the preparation of pralines, then enjoyed with satisfaction by those present.

The event ended with the re-enactment of the historic circuit of the Coppa della Perugina and the awards ceremony at Città della Domenica, the wildlife park which offers a unique viewpoint over Perugia.Thanks to my friend Ugo Amodeo, brilliant organizer of the event, and to all the staff, who did their best to confirm the top profile of the meeting.
