The ride last year was fun. Are we going to do it again?

Looks like we will meet at Starbucks in Bristol on rt 6 at 8:30 Saturday 5/17 and leave at 9 sharp! There are lots of gas stations in the area so please fill-up before meeting

Edit to add final plan!

Is this a yearly/club event? Or just a group ride? Whats the details, meet up, route, etc.? Im interested, motorcycles is another one of my expensive hobbies. Based on the pics ill probably be taking out my cruiser instead of the crotch rockets.

Pain, how about 5/17 or 5/18 ???

This was just a group ride about 6 of us went on last year. Was a cool place to ride to and visit.

Either date should work.... I've also got a nicer route if we leave from the Bristol area.

J....definitely bring the cruiser, we're all old(er) & slow ;)
Last year we met in Harwinton and shot up rt8 right to the mountain but I found a nicer route to get us up on rt 8 in MA.

Sorry, I'm not on the forum nearly as much since I changed jobs and have been busier than usual.

So far, I don't have any plans for that weekend, so either day should work. The Yamaha is going in for service on Monday, but should be in top shape well before that weekend.

I had a text conversation with Josh and Andy this morning and it looks like they can make it again also.
I'm getting excited....This ride was a blast last year.
