Hey Shari, do I count since my wife was born and bread in Columbia, and I lived there for 4 years? Yeah, I live here in SC now, but my heart has never been here, just the job. If I were to call anyplace home, I'd like it to be CT or CO, but never found a way to get back...

CT? I believe that's East of here. Agreed, the sort feature Robert had built into the 'old boards' was useful. Where is Robert anyway? If you ask me, he works way too hard. He used to let us know when he was going on vacation so we had a place to throw parties. I guess after the last time when we all left, but the travelling circus camped a few extra days out back was the final straw

I know where it is. Does that count? On a windy day I can throw a rock and hit it. If I throw really hard.

My folks were from Conn., and at one time our family would make the short 2 1/2 hr. trip from NH to visit all of our relatives that lived there. Most are gone now, but I occaisionally go there to see the few that remain. I think that Ill only be in your state once this year, and thats to see the vintage racing in Lime Rock this fall. I know this doesnt qualify me as being a resident, but the time spent there should at least gain me some unofficial status!

I guess I shouldn't mention that I have only driven through there a couple of times, eh?

Hey Mert, sorry to add to the no-shows (I do know Matt lives there and I have ridden with him) but I am planning on bringing my long island guys over to CT on the verry to meet up with the MA guys in CT in August or September. I'll post something on here so we can all connect.
Also, if you do plan a CT gathering this summer, I'll see if I can make it!

Hi mert. Still waiting to get out there and ride. This has been a pretty cold Mar/April so far. I have met some of the other Ct members. Are you planning on going to the open house at Branchville or Canton Cycles?

West Haven reporting. Been out of touch with the site for awhile. If your interested there is the Blue Knights 24th Annual Bike Blessing, May 1st at the Italian American Club 85 Chase Lane West Haven, CT. Registration is form 9:00am-12:00pm. The cost has been $15 or $20. Ride has been along West Haven shore, north to route 34, to the Good Shepard Church in Orange and back for food. The police have all the intersections blocked, so its a nice easy ride with a couple hundred bikes on parade. I'm always the only Triumph there in a sea of Harleys, but she still draws a crowd. Maybe see you there or on the road somewhere.
