Well, a little Guzzi content. I rode my '76 Convert down to the show in Marshall, VA yesterday. Excellent turn-out of vehicles despite rather cool temps and overcast skies. My favorite of all was the '33 Morgan with J.A.P. water-cooled v-twin out front. But, the big yellow Allard was a close second. Several nice Britbikes there as well - Triumphs, Nortons and an immaculate Ariel Square 4.
Afterwards, I had lunch at the Marshall Diner with my friend Martin, then headed west solo, towards Luray. I "misunderestimated" the distance to cover and remaining daylight, so ended up arriving home around 8 pm, after covering 215 miles. It didn't help that a bridge on my planned route was closed (supposedly for high water!
) and I had a lot of backtracking to do. Mostly up through several deer-infested backroads. Good thing the Convert has fantastic lighting...
