   Hello riders!
New member here. I've been riding Guzzis since the age of 24. Starting with a 78 T3 back in 1980. Remember 1980? Today, my stable has several residents. 76 T3, 90 Cali 3 full fairing, 04 Coppa, pushed to a 103 ponies, and a 80 Hondamatic.
Its been a lousy spring in New England, and air time has been few, and far in between. Looking forward to dry, sunny weather as I am sure we all are. I'm looking forward to reading posts and sharing information on this forum. Bless everyone, and have a fast, safe season.
   Sincerely, qman
   Of all the things I've lost ... I miss my mind the most!

Welcome, yes I remember 1980 too, the year I bought my first new bike (and only new bike for 35 years).

1980 -- I joined a commune and started building a 650 Triumph in the living room.
The kitchen wasn't clean enough to build a bike in ...

Welcome, look forward to hearing more.

No kidding! Happens I was thinking of visiting Maine this time next year and been following the weather forecasts up there. There's been days recently in low 40s "feels like low 30s" & rain. Only heroic riders need apply. I'm now thinking of visiting next year in June instead!

New England is part of the battleground latitudes that the southern warmth and Canadian cold fight over each spring. Anything can happen. Maine as you probably know, is over 30,000 sq. miles. From shoreline climate up to the mountains. I can remember summer camping and waking to some pretty crisp mornings. Not in the mountains either. Bring a nice sleeping bag. It is a beautiful state for riding.

Thanks for the update.  I was thinking of driving but now I may pick up a rental bike.  Sounds a lot more fun than a Ford Fusion again Confused
