Just remembering my Uncle Gino today.

Gino was a top motorcycle racing mechanic who died tragically 60 years ago today.  His death is still a mystery.

Sorry for your loss. A burning cigarette ash 6 inches from a funnel full of gas takes strict concentration.

Remember the rule, when smoking around gasoline, be sure not to "hot-box" the cigarette as the ash ember will Glow and cause more heat therefore igniting the vapor of gasoline

Gino probably had higher octane inside of him than what was being poured into the bike, just saying.

Vino is one thing, Grappa is totally another animal, at nearly 120 proof he could have dumped it into the bike and had a blue flame coming out the exhaust !
