SOLVED: si_065 - Ducati - Cruiser - 1952-1954

A really elegant scooter, isn't it? Name of donner and model inclusive production period will be enough for a point.
Who knows name and profession(s) of the driver will get a industrious bee.

Yes, it is this interesting scooter. Any idea about the driver? Either way, it's your point.

So, is him the French journalist Christian Christophe, nicknamed 'Crius'?

Yes, it is ChriChri.
A journalist and writer whose articles and books distinguish by a lot of expertise and even more humour. No contribution without a wink, always worth reading again. To make matters worse, he was also a racing driver. In the early 50s, he took part in the Bol d'Or, if I remember correctly on an Adler. The memory of him is worth at least one bee!!

Dear 'sichel',
thank you so much for this extraordinary reward, which is worth as much as a hundred painstakingly earned points!
I christened this award: The hardworking Willy! (Der fleißige Willy!).. based on TV-series: Maya, the bee (Die Biene Maya)
