CTSPEED has proposed to me a meet-up at the Toymaker's Cafe Sunday morning. Anyone interested?
Mark, This is an about a 2hr cold ride for me, but, I've got a hanker'n for a "Brittish Banger Platter Special" breakfast. I also need a good excuse to test out my new heated vest, and Aerostich Heated Wraps(if I install them in time).
Big Poppy, I could bring the bags for you.
9AM departure(a little time to warm up) would get me up there around 11AM. If it's too cold, or nasty to ride, I may cage up in my P/U. Interested parties, please chime in. Uncle Charlie

Where is that? If I get a rear tire mounted by then I may take the ferry over to CT. That will be my b-day present to myself.

Toymakers Cafe is in Falls Village, CT. Way up RT7, almost to Mass. If you want to come over, and do the ride, let me know. I could meet you at the BPT Ferry. It would be a long, cold, day. But fun!

I have to take my son back to school Sunday morning, plus I would be caging it I put Big Poppy away a couple of weeks ago.
Maybe I can convince him to go back on Sat. then I coild make it, sure would like to see everyone.
Hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving. watch our traditional "Chevy Chase Griswold Christmas DVD".
I love the part when Eddie is dumping the sh**ter in the catch basin in his underware drinlking a beer.

Hey Guy's, I'm in.  I forgot I have Monday off and I'm taking Brenden back to school on Monday.  11:00 sounds good to me. I will send a PM to our newest member XHD (Steve) and invite him and his wife.

I'll strap the bags on, and see you there. Buy me breakfast, and the bags are yours. Happy Thanksgiving! Uncle Charlie

UC I plan on heading up about 9am. Will hang around till about 10:45. Im only about 1/2 hr away from Toymakers. And as always I have to be at work at noon. Dont blame you for wanting to get a latter start. temps tonite are going to be in the 20s. with all this rain lots of water running over the road and freezing over nite. be careful along RT7 in the shaded areas.

Anthony I'm in VT... Will be driving south if I go.
Guys, if I am coming south on 7, what should I look for landmark/sign wise? I think 11 might be doable, have to check with the mrs.

Benny, RT7 south of Canaan CT. Look for RT 126 (flashing traffic lite) Take a Right onto 126, when road forkes go left. Toymakers is on left. Big yellow house(like the fast Speedmasters)

Mark,
I'll try for an earlier start so I don't miss you.
Benny,
rt126 is a few miles south of Martin's house.
Big Poppy,
The bags are strapped to my bike, ready to deliver.
Matt,
This is probably gonna be the last decent Sunday this year.
I got pm's from Robba05, vintage6t(Dave), and Oneijack.
They're all trying to make it. Maybe Mert'll surprise us.

Benny, Hope you make it! I've got your cell#, and will check in w/you in the AM. We might get a pretty good turn-out for late November in New England.
