I'll be riding up tomorrow morning. Coming up through Ct. and Ma. Staying in Rutland Vt. Will probably do a day pass or two during the week to do a few test rides and hit the tour expo. Will spend the rest of the time riding the NY-Vt area.

Only saw one Speedmaster all week, an Adventurer and a Bonnie in addition to 4 or 5 Rockets. Americade was lots of fun, and the riding in the Adirondacks & Vermont was sensational. We're definitely returning to Americade in June 2010!

Ya know, even though a lot of us encourage others to get a Trumpet, I do admit that I rather enjoy having the "nearly" only one in my area. If everybody took our advice, the "sightings" we report wouldn't be as much fun! And, would we still be able to "go our own way", if everybody else was going the same way?!  Wait! If everybody is going the same way, isn't that a direction?!

Saw a couple of BA's followed a green one up Tongue Mtn. on rte9N Friday, really wanted to catch ya. saw a red on rte 9 Sun in Saratoga Glens Falls area. Rode up to Whiteface Mtn. on Sat & over to Lake Placid, Beautiful ride great town. Stuck behind geazer glides on way home they had to slow down for every turn, absolutly killing us... stopped at a nice scenic overlook & let them go away, which was a good move.

I was there on my tornado red speedy on Tuesday, the only other trumpet I saw that day was a Rocket III. Rode up from York PA with a couple guys on Jap cruisers. The roads/scenery around there are absolutely beautiful and a blast to ride.
