Looks like Saturday for me as well. Supposed to be hot.
Hopefully meeting the Baltimore Renegades (Triumph riding group, good guys) somewhere between Hagerstown MD and the event (Gettysburg area most likely, maybe Hanover/York).
Anyone coming from Western PA/VA want to meet up?

i was out there today. didn't recognize a soul. hot as hades. driving around 695 to I83 at 65 mph literally felt like riding in an oven at times. just waves of dense heat.

Pete and I were there pretty early. We left at 11:45 because it was so darn hot (about a 2 hour ride home for me). I spent the rest of the day rehydrating in the pool.... There was one unusual Speedy on display. A guy from Wilkes-Barre who had a unique cafe style bike. He was part of the Ace Hooligans group from that area. Sadly, only crappy camera phone pix but:

I took some crappy cell phone pics of this one too. I really liked the mesh to cover the wiring batteries and such. Liked the paint as well. Interesting bike, but over all, just kinda missed for me.
BTW, I think it's an America.

The green cafe is a Speedmaster with America wheels and chrome bits. Not my cup of tea, but different and done well. The guy was very proud of it. He was surprised when I told him about the cafe guy who ran it at Bonneville and thought he was the only cafe guy. The Bonneville bike didn't have this many details. Quote:

It sure looks uncomfortable to ride for any distance. Hmm, bet it doesn't get close to $7,500.
