I have been going to the Springfield Mile since I moved back from Tahoe in 1983,got to see Scotty Parker duel with Ricky Graham,Harley vs Honda and I was rooting for Ricky! One of the few good things about living in Havana,Illinois is it is in the heart of flattrack country,50 miles to Springfield and Peoria TT, 100 miles to Davenport Iowa vintage half mile,175 miles to DuQuoin Magic Mile! I believe I met you a year or two ago,I was on my white 1984 LeMans III and was about to have a heat stroke so I didn't stay to chat,sorry... I would like to make up for that and meet you for some Guzzi chat and proper refreshments! I have kind of an interesting collection of Euro-trash you might like to see! I am curious to see if they do the same thing to Indian as they did to Honda,change the rules so Harley win again. Honda said no thanks,took their bikes and championships and went home...[/quoteYep, I remember you. We’lll have to get together! I’ll post again in May 👍
What's your preferred route from Duckburg?
Guzzistajohn……...Myself and a couple buddy's are going down to Fort Worth in late April, and from there to Chandler AZ. the next weekend. The old Guzzie going to get about 4k on that trip. Love those flat track races. If I see ya in Springfield I will buy the first Beer,Bucky
Where is the Hotel? Whats the price?Bucky
OK, I am a bit confused,Duckburg does that refer to Havana,Illinois being the home of the Ducks,school mascot,or am I just having a senior moment? LoL...
Ahem....I attended college in Springfield, MO WAY back in the early 70's...it was very small town then and the invasion of long-haired hippies attending school and looking for cheap, um, agricultural land was in stark contrast to the sturdy, overall-clad farmer folk and land barons such as John Q. Hammond who was responsible for demolishing much of the affordable student housing, cheap restaurants, and head shops around the University so he could fund erections to his legacy...the counter-culture came to refer to him and other button-down types as "Scrooge McDuck(s)" (a la the Disney comics) who of course inhabited the fictional town of Duckburg and naturally, the town of Springfield came to aquire the same sobriquet...clear as mud?? Power to the people! Fondly, twowings[/quoteThe old Springfield joke is ..... did you hear John q hammons was buying the Kraft factory???? He’s changing the name to Hammon cheese 🧀

I had a Springfield girlfriend who worked at the Kraft factory and she told me all about how they make Velveeta....
I’m putting it on my calendar, never been!
