Last year was cool ....a shit load of cruisers but a pretty good turn out of sport bikes too. Anyone going this year ?

A few pics of last year, on the main drag....

The wife and I are...we were invited by some friends that live in NH. He and his wife own 7 or 8 bikes. We visited them last May...beautiful area.

One of his bikes is a Turbobusa putting down 265 rwhp that he wants me to try out. I rode it last time I was there when it was "only" putting down 230 rwhp.

He's also got a Ducati 999R that is fun to ride.

The rest are cruisers...nice bikes though.

Well I've never seen that Honda but the Victory...Duc...Busa...and Goldwing in the background...YEP there his. He may have picked up the Honda since I was there or that could be from before..with him there's no telling.

He's your counselor ?

No...not my counselor .....he's a member on our Busa site....when you mentioned a guy in N.H. with a busa, a duc and some cruisers, I knew it had to be him. Never talked to him face to face but he seems like a hell of a guy !

Oh...just saw this. Rick is his name...he is pretty cool. His wife and my wife work together and that's how we met.

I didn't ride for a few years due to a nasty accident and it's his fault that I started riding again.

If you see him online...I'm Randy with the Z06...he'll know who you're talking about.

"z06boy" won't ring a bell with him.

Cool ....I'll tell him we met .....in an internet kinda way !

Ive been tossing the idea around... how are the Harley riders their though. You know how the elitist Harley riders are and how they love to shit on are faster, more reliable motorized bicycles.

Everbody seems to pretty much keep to themselves ......trust me, I hate crowds of people ....but it went well. I was surprised with all the conflicting gangs riding around....all was peacefull.

so none of the Harley riders messed with your bike at all (ex: knocked it over, spit on it, set it on fire, or etc).
