YES: Oct. 18 = Moto Guzzi New England Day
« on: September 28, 2020, 06:39:06 PM »
Stopped by the Vanilla Bean today to meet with them, and decided to give the Fall Moto Guzzi New England Day a GO!

Same drill as the Spring event that was held at Sweet Evalina's: keep your distance, masks required, and if there's not enough elbow room or it seems too close for comfort...we'll park across the street in the roadside gravel pull-out area, by ourselves.

Sunday, Oct. 18
24th Annual Fall Moto Guzzi New England Day
10:00 AM -- 2:00 PM

The Vanilla Bean
Rte. 44 and 169
450 Deerfield Road
Pomfret, CT 06259

Weather's lookin' good!

If possible, I suggest bringing a bag chair, or folding/camp chair. Or even a blanket, for the grass. Seating is normally somewhat limited, and now with - restrictions...

ah, great...

Nothing like frost warnings to end the season

I’m seeing 39 degrees for Sunday morning along the CT inland of the Merritt

Might be chillier for the Mass crowd...

Definitely want to try out my new handlebars

Hope for you guys going its nicer tomorrow then this morning. Im sitting here in cape cod enjoying the 40mph gusts, and rain...   I really hate that the season wraps up so soon here in the north east.

Ready, set...

Again, wear a mask, keep your distance. No idea what the parking will be like, what the availability of seating will be (bring a camp chair?) and the status on the food line. So be prepared to adapt...

...like I will, because a recent medical procedure is going to force me to take four wheels.

Great turn out.

Sorry I couldn't attend.

Time frame and last minute family changes again.

But I did have a quick trip to Danbury for coffee and was home by 11:00 . In a truck.

Family commitment met.

See you on the road somewhere.
