While I also enjoyed the first few ride stories, my more responsible inner conscience soon reminded me that this Classic Rendezvous list is not about personal ride stories. It is about mechanics, metal, makers and historical stuff. I know it is fun and tempting to regale one another with favorite trips, but still I must ask you all to refrain from reminisces that do not directly include vintage bike elements. And I don't mean stuff like "......astride my 1967 Masi, I set off at 10 am to visit the wine country....."
If you disagree, I respect your opinion, but I must remind you that this is not a democracy... :) Thanks to all for their cooperation.
