Great minds… I was just thinking about posting a reminder this morning, Bob looking through the tire catalog at the shop yesterday for Guzzi tires. 

We’re looking forward to seeing folks here at the shop in Chesnee.  I’m trying to get my CX on the road by then in spite of normal life stuff- we’ll see. 

If anyone needs anything en route, give me a call on my plain old landline (864) 814-6418

For the Chesnee event- I’ve got me, Dennis, Jay (750GT Roundcase) and a few other local Italian bike folks invited.  I’ll get a real count before you get to town, Bob.

Changed oil, filter, and rear end gear lube on the Goldwing yesterday to get it ready for South Carolina.  Here’s hoping for a safe trip as thanks to my 2014 ram truck breaking down all the time, I’m a little paranoid on trips lately.  Lol.  Ram is on third rearend!  And second engine!  Lol.

No kidding- if y’all arent coming, we’ll relax next week instead of cleaning up for company..

Not sure if my new bike will be on the road by then.  Backordered brake parts are hopefully now en route but I had to order tires from Dennis Kirk because our vendors were out of stock again until ??.

Fyi.  I show 8 from our little Facebook southeastern guzzi group and three from here going.  That’s 11 total but it could go down as people cancel all the time at the last minute.  I will be there either way.  Lol

They say two guzzi riders together is a rally.  Looks like we will for sure have a rally at the Chesnee Classic Cycle Shop next Saturday!  Lol

Yup.  that was a good time.  Maybe we can do it again sometime..  Here's a link to the short video of the Meet & Greet-

And here's a line-up of all the Guzzista who stood under our Guzzi sign.  If I had all the names and proper spelling, I would include that info as well..-

Awesome!  So the weather forecast was wrong?  Just looks partly cloudy.

Glad you had a good turnout.

ok, I'm dumb. I thought it was cancelled, but now I see that was the August meetup!  :coffee:


shoot, my wife was really eager for me to pick up unpasteurized raw milk while I was in SC, she wants to make some real butter at home.

Glad you had a good turnout.

Unless we’re in a serious drought, the weather forecast here for July is always uncomfortable hot with crazy humidity and likely chance of thunderstorm every day.  It changes at the end of the month, with a break in the humidity and lower t-storm chances. 

We danced this dance for years and years around our late July bike rally.  People call endlessly stressing about the predicted rain.   Always the same forecast, but only 1-2 real hours-long “rain” events in 15+yrs.   We’re happy to get a brief t-storm on later afternoon of the last day to run people off so we can start wrapping it up.   Then, within a couple of days of event on the Last Weekend in July, temps drop 10+ degrees along with the humidity and we wish that great weather would happen during our rally.

No rally this year, so it was fun to have a small crowd of cool bikes at the shop for the afternoon.

No worries, man.  I brought your jar of muscadine wine back home with me….  We can a mini rally at the shop or the studio anytime you want.  Belue’s Market is about a mile from my studio and they usually have raw milk.
