Same drill as usual. If you're on two wheels, please park over to the left at the Seven Falls driveway area ... to leave spaces open for Deb's. No need to get there exactly at 8:00 ... come as your schedule permits. After breakfast we'll be hanging at THE SEVEN FALLS DRIVEWAY AREA to leave tables open for Deb.

Checking the weather…cold and rainy gets cleared late Saturday with warmth and dry early Sunday AM….50’s predawn …

Ride now or wait till March..

Yes, forecast for 50's in the morning can't be beat for November. I'll try to make it.

Well, New England being New England...

-Leave the house, overcast sky, a surprisingly pleasant 49 degrees, damp roads from heavier rain than expected the night before, but all's well.
-8:00-ish arrive at Deb's, sun starting to come out, go inside anticipating a beautiful morning to follow.
-Eat breakfast with what ultimately turned out to be 12 Guzzi guys and gals thinking the same thing.
-a little after 9:00 it starts to sprinkle, some decide to head home, the sky is ominously darkening.
-by 9:30 it's raining/pouring sideways, the rest of us take shelter under Deb's outdoor dining tent to wait out the deluge.
-10:00 the sky is crystal clear blue and the sun is burning as bright as can be! Still 49 degrees...

Welcome to New England! So here's what rolled in for what turned into a "memorable" November breakfast:

MOTO GUZZI...
T3
LeMans III
Centauro
Norge
V85 TT Centenario

AND MORE...
BMW R100RT
Honda Goldwing GL1000

Oops ... forgot the EV!

Also turned out to be one of those classic deceptive days, where at close to 50 deg & sunny you'd expect a comfortable ride with full jacket and pants.  I froze my arse off on the ride home with the additional gusty side winds.

Looks like my fate is to be leaving in "weather".

I really liked the cut of your T3's jib. Especially the red Wixoms. Looked overall like a bike that aged very well and had lots of miles left.

126,000 miles so far. It really is my favorite.
I'm 80, so it will probably outlast me.
Son in law (who shares some adventures) has requested I leave it to him.
I'm glad to see it go to someone who will use and enjoy it.
