Some bikes go well and some look good... really good. Italian bikes have managed to achieve both of these things over the last five decades. In this week's paper we look at the very best and ride them, falling in love with these Latin lovelies all over again!

We've also taken one of Italy's latest offerings, the Ducati Diavel Strada and ridden it. It's designed to be a touring version of the stylised mean machine and so we took it Scotland... two up. Find out how the 160bhp machine managed the mammoth ride.

 While many of us have been enjoying a summer break, the MotoGP stars have also had their feet up for a few weeks. We take the opportunity to ask many racing experts who they think will win the title. The championship is still wide open and many key figures reckon Marc Marquez might have enough to go the distance...
