The meet-up at the Star Diner was the best year ever.  Sadly, my few pics don't capture everyone or every bike there, but Italian bikes (esp Guzzi) outnumbered every other brand put together.   Long distance award goes to Dave, who traveled down from Maine. 
Paul, I hope you feel better and make next time.

Thanks for hosting the meet again Joe. Glad everyone had such a perfect weather day to ride over. Made it back in good time, 364 mile round trip from my house. It was good to see some of the same faces as a few years ago. I think the Centaro deserves best of show for the Italians. The cbx was drool worthy ,but not Italian obviously. Also. I will graciously accept the biggest oil spot award, however. I did not check under the Harley's. :grin: I'll post up some pics when my phone re charges.

Also my new manual load gps /toll dispenser worked a treat :grin:

Dave,
It was good to see you, and thanks for the photos.  For some reason my snaps disappeared from my posting. 
An internet mystery.

I stopped in for a great linguica sandwich and saw this very pretty MG with a very reasonable asking price. I asked the owner to start it and he did. Wonderful exhaust note. As always I don’t remember names.  It was a very nice gathering.
