One of my favorite New England rides

[PAULYBOY]

I lived in Bristol R.I. until I was about 8. I still remember vivdly the foliage. No matter where my travels have taken me thru life, I have never found fall foliage season to be as spectacular as that in New England.

Alright. Now I know why I agreed to get a bike again when my son was grown and had one of his own. As a New Englander thats been in exile for most of 40 years, I drove my son up the Kanc about 6 years ago on one of our 4 wheeled driving vacas. Thats when I fell backj in love with New England. Now you've gone and done it. I was gonna drive the Blue Ridge, but now, I must make a trip there in my lifetime from cincinnati .

If you are saying Cincinnati to New England .. let me know if you want company.

I could see doing it again maybe late summer 2008.

Hey, good idea!

[mriddle]

Sounds like a plan!

When will Moosehead 08 actually be ?

Is it already scheduled ?

That'd be cool if Mike showed up for the Moosehead trip. Not only would it be great to see him again, but it'd be neat to see your old bike again Geoff.

I know, and if the 81 project stays on track, my two 1100E's could meet! The 81 has sat in the garage looking at all these other street ready bikes for 5 years, poor thing. I'm really shooting for taking that bike up there this year. It's the bike that went on the first Moosehead trip. It would be kicka$$ to get a picture of those two machines together.

If he doesn't come up, I may have to take the GS down South.

That sounds great. What are you doing to the 81? Complete restore?

By the way, I really like the classic look of that one. I've heard mixed opinions about the headlight.

That's funny, I have that very picture blown up and hanging on the wall... But mine is going to be black with red and orange pin stripes- so utterly 1980's... the blue is nice, but the black with orange reminds me of shag carpets and ABBA...

It's going to be 100% stock engine, intake and exhaust, and almost all of the body work, but I have an 83 1100E headlight and gauge pack that I will probably use. I have both, so I could change it if I didn't like it.
