Larz Anderson Classic European Motorcycle Day

Anyone going?

http://www.larzanderson.org/Topics/...ID=402183&CFTOKEN=66126008&CalendarEventId=48

My plan is to grab some breakfast in downtown Newburyport at 8AM and head out shortly after that. Slab down 95, hang out at the show for a large portion of the morning / early afternoon and ride north afterwards, avoiding slab as much as possible, taking a route through Salem, Gloucester, Essex, Ipswich and hitting up American BBQ in Rowley for a late lunch. If anyone wants to join me, meet me at Angies at 8.

Sounds interesting! But I may help a friend trailer two of his classic Beezas for judging. Going to the show one way or the other.

Given your return route, I have to ask how you can *possibly* ride past the Clam Box and not eat there?

Clam box is certainly an option! Nothing is set in stone.

Mmmm.... whole bellies.

Love to go, but I'm going to this...

Alright then. Thanks for that.

I'll be at Lars lending a hand and drooling over bikes, BBQ (or clams) sound good but I may try and catch the tail end of the IMOC show.

Too much to do and too few days.

Too much to do on the same day. 3 Bike shows and a few other events like the Ammo ride and the unidilla gncc. I'll probably try and make it to Brookline.

BBQ,

What time are you heading to IMOC, I'll be at Larz but might hit IMOC as well.

Colt03,
Lets talk this weekend, I understand you may west of here with a wine glass in your hand.

Doug, You still planning on being at Angies @ 8:00. I am going to try and make it.
Huck

I am 99% sure I will be at Larz. See you Sunday Huck.

Hey BBQ,
Is that easily doable...?

I have not been to the IMOC for some time and Larz is great and all that but I was not sure if I could squeeze both in er not...

Thanks,
Rob from the great white north...

Doable for me seeing as I live about 1/2 way between the 2 places. It would have to be a Mass Pike making time kind of ride between the 2. Hamilton Rod and Gun is right off the Pike in Sturbridge. Probably 1 to 1 1/2 hrs depending how bad the traffic is getting from Lars to the Pike.
Lars is great and all, and I will be there for a while, But IMOC has a certain appeal, plus I don't want to be missing the 2009 pin.

I might make it by the end of the event, it will be a mad dash from the airport.

Was going to IMOC, but the others want to go to Larz. So Larz it is. Probably cause the roads there are so exciting.

HelloKitty and I are in. See you up there.

Hey D

I was surprised to run into so many other inmates up there, what a cool place. Amazing dedication. Clearly this was man who had his priorities in line.

Anyway, I brought a camera and must have been overwhelmed by all the sights because I apparently forgot to actually use it. Here's some of the few pictures we took.

Your author needs work on his glamour poses.


Would love one of these someday. Come to think of it, you can apply that statement to almost all of the following pictures.


Some funky stuff up there.


Creamsicles.


I swear this guy had a to-do list in his tank bag that said "drugs, paint, wash".




HelloKitty approves of the logo.


Honestly, I didn't like these when I first saw them. Now I think they're pretty sexy.



Really wish I would have gotten more pictures inside. Simply amazing.


Thanks to RTLLTR, Dave, Dave and Sophie for guiding us up there and exercising the electrical demons.

Great to see Beez, Huck and Nicole up there too.

Now someone go finish the Mass Tag.:ddog

Fun day. 12:30 came around and I got hungry, and a burger wasn't cuttin' it. So I rode to the Cape and had a stuff quahog.
