I want to but the company has a hold on the weekend. It's a great weekend and even just wandering through the parked bikes is engrossing.

I got a reprieve, don't have to go to NYC until the 15th, so I'm going Saturday. I think my brother will ride up from FL and we'll make a day of it. Nothing better than staring at vintage iron all day with a couple of nice 120 mile rides tossed in the mix.

One o' these days.
(...this is DEFINITELY on my ol' "Bucket List")
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

It's beautiful over there. In fact, we're going to take a run a Wolf Pen Gap today (in spite of the possible rain) and head on down to Barber tomorrow morning.

And then it started pouring rain relentlessly so we flipped days and went to Barber. This year there is a huge Triumph presence, both vintage and dealers of the modern bikes. Not to be missed. Wolf Pen Gap today, we'll be launching from Rider's Hill about 1:30.

Wow! Love the Honda Cafe Racers there, Paul. And that Commando Interstate was very nice too.  (...thanks for the pics!)
