Davenport is only authorized to have one.   You must have spotted it.

I rode 100 miles to a pastry shop that was closed today (Labor Day). Then I had to ride home... all for "nothing." But somehow, all the roads between here and there were narrow and twisty.

Not me.

I was last weekend riding in PA, NJ, NY, CT, RI, MA,ME and VT. Total of 1250 miles.
Did not see one single Guzzi, so definately no rallies in any of those states....
