I was fortunate enough to run into you fine folks on Route 100 over the weekend while you were on your way to lunch on Saturday. I was on my FJ1200 pulling out of the Vermont Country Store when you went by. Quite an impressive group. As I was watching and waiting and counting 1100's when woman came up to me and asked " are you with that group" and I told her " no but I will be in a minute ". I just wanted to stop by your site and say as a former owner of a 79 special what a pleasure it was to see so many XS1100's and for a few miles being a part of your group. Thanks for making the weekend "special" Rich

Rich,

I am glad you chimed in, lunch was great!! I was on the Triumph, we had a nice talk at the stop lights! Nice FJ as well.

Yep I got directions, Hope one of you guys can drive with a trailer on and remember where I live. You might want to cover it with a tarp so the bike isn't too embarassed. Try to get it here in one piece please. Rick

Alright Phil...Just make sure the exhausts are tight After my ride back from Brattleboro I was wishing for a bigger bike...oh well I may just go modern for my next bike....These old bikes are great for rallies but for the real long hauls in comfort nothing beats a sport-tourer..............

Hi,
Home at last just after midhight. HamJam & I had a long day of driving.
All went well. Nowhere near Ottawa so just as well we had directions
Bike was ready and it still took an hour to load and meet and greet.
Burned our way though $180 of gas.
Safely delivered to Rick's house in Hamilton for safe keeping.
Am i a Vice President now?
