2023 Gathering of the Nortons
« on: March 10, 2023, 06:29:58 AM »
Found this on another list. Cannot verify if it is accurate, but here it is.....

  The Gathering of the Nortons this year will be held at a NEW VENUE:
Performance Garage Club, located at 843 NJ Route 12, Flemington.
The reason for the change is that the PA Parks Department has changed the rules such that the event can no longer be held in a park in Pennsylvania.

The Gathering of the Nortons this year will be held at the same time and date - 9AM to 1PM on the 4th Sunday of April, the 23rd.

PLEASE pass this news on to anybody you know who's likely to go to the Gathering.

I hope they've got the room. That event draws a fair sized crowd if the weather is good.

My thoughts exactly. I’ve been to PG for another event, and it might have worked for one of the early Gathering of the Norton’s, it will be pretty tight for the numbers that show up for more recent GOTN at Washington Crossing.

It’s a shame that the Pa. park system has locked them out. In all of the years this event has been held, I have never heard of any issues with the crowd.

I started going when when the meet was on the Jersey side—Never ever saw or heard of any trouble— I really liked that river ride…

We had a Norton meet here in Quincy a few years ago. It was well attended, lots of interesting bikes. A good number of locals turned out to check them out. The local hardware store owner brought his which has some trick stuff on it including increased displacement. They were also here twenty some years ago.

Here is the official flyer.  We had looked at the parking lot a few weeks ago as a club and it is far larger than the parking area at WC state park. All makes of bikes are encouraged to attend.  I hope to see you some of you there. Brian

This is going to be the season kick-off ride for the NJ MGNOC group. A number of us will be there so let me know if you want to meet up with us.

I'm also trying to set up a meet and greet at the nearby Flemington Powersports which is now a Piaggio / MG dealer. Am waiting to hear back from the GM and will let folks know if something gets scheduled.

HI Eric, my usual riding group is going down and will be taking a Tom Tom route and blows 519 away in coolness. I think i told you about this. It will be a longer ride but it will be awesome. And my buddy Steve just got a new V7 Special, the gloss black one with red shocks and Arrow exhaust.
